I'm looking to install/use a calendar module on a school website I'm currently developing. Can someone please point me to where I can download it from?
thanks

I had a quick look in Safari and it seems fine but I hope you know some, (probably all,) of the pages do not validate and it's only silly little things to get you there ;-).

All web pages should be constructed with valid (X)HTML. I'd go for a minimum doctype of XHTML Strict 1.0. They should also be accessible and contain vaild CSS.
Note: sometimes it necessary to break the 'valid CSS' bit to accomodate difficult browsers ;-)

1. (X)HTML Validator
http://validator.w3.org/

2. CSS Validator
http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/

3. Accessibilty
I see no real reason why a web page should not at least pass the machine test for 'AAA'  for accessibility. Although it should be noted that this does not mean it is really 'AAA' - because this requires considerable further manual testing.

a. WebXACT

b. Cynthia Says

Hope this helps,
Russ
