Limit get_event_list?

Hi Ian,

I am using the $cal->get_event_list("day"); function to return the events on today.

Unfortuanately, I have some days that have upwards of 50 events happening. How can I limit the number of events that are returned (or displayed) for that day using this code ie 10, 15 etc?

This is the code I am using (provided by you Smile

of course):

$elist = $cal->get_event_list("day");

// before anything ..
$events_printed = 0;

# each day returned in this list
foreach($elist as $d) {

# each event on this day
foreach($d as $e) {
$events_printed = 1;
# Get full event details
$e = $cal->get_event($e['id'],$e['instance']);

if ($e->notes == "") $notes = "No Details Given";

else $notes = $e->notes;

echo("id."&instance=2007-1-19&KeepThis=true&TB_iframe=true&height=300&width=500\">".$e->title." ".$cal->format_date("D M j",$e->start).""
);

}

You can limit the display by using a different type of for loop.

Change this:

Hi Ken,

Thanks for the code, unfortunatley the 'for' loop doeas not work correcty in place of the 'foreach' loop in this circumstance (i get a large list of just "event" items - much longer than 15)

Any other ideas??

Cheers

Dean

Hmmm, guess I had something not quite right Smile

.

Ian's code looks great, too - cleaner. Try putting a semicolon after the line
