One of my friend ask me for a tutorial on adding Calendar in his website. This is now your request. Though they called it "Basic Calendar", it is still impressive on its own feature. You can choose whether to show a normal calendar, or show three months with the present, past and future, and lastly, dynamically show the whole year's month with a drop down menu to choose from.
1. Go to this LINK. Now download the basiccalendar.js from that site (just right click on it and "save link as".)
2. Upload the basiccalendar.js to your template by going to Weebly > Design > Edit HTML/CSS > Add new file.
3. Now assuming you read on how to edit the <head>, paste the following code on your website's <head>.
<style type="text/css">
.main {
width:200px;
border:1px solid black;
}
.month {
background-color:black;
font:bold 12px verdana;
color:white;
}
.daysofweek {
background-color:gray;
font:bold 12px verdana;
color:white;
}
.days {
font-size: 12px;
font-family:verdana;
color:black;
background-color: lightyellow;
padding: 2px;
}
.days #today{
font-weight: bold;
color: red;
}
</style>

4. Ok, time to add the calendar to your page. Drag one "embed code" and paste any of the following:
Ordinary Calendar
<script type="text/javascript">
var todaydate=new Date()
var curmonth=todaydate.getMonth()+1 //get current month (1-12)
var curyear=todaydate.getFullYear() //get current year
document.write(buildCal(curmonth ,curyear, "main", "month", "daysofweek", "days", 1));
</script>
var todaydate=new Date()
var curmonth=todaydate.getMonth()+1 //get current month (1-12)
var curyear=todaydate.getFullYear() //get current year
document.write(buildCal(curmonth ,curyear, "main", "month", "daysofweek", "days", 1));
</script>
Past, Present and Future Calendar (I only used past and present in the demo)
<script type="text/javascript">
var todaydate=new Date()
var curmonth=todaydate.getMonth()+1 //get current month (1-12)
var curyear=todaydate.getFullYear() //get current year
</script>
<table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="3">
<tr>
<td width="33%">
<script>
document.write(buildCal(curmonth-1 ,curyear, "main", "month", "daysofweek", "days", 1));
</script></td>
<td width="33%">
<script>
document.write(buildCal(curmonth ,curyear, "main", "month", "daysofweek", "days", 1));
</script></td>
<td width="34%">
<script>
document.write(buildCal(curmonth+1 ,curyear, "main", "month", "daysofweek", "days", 1));
</script></td>
</tr>
</table>
var todaydate=new Date()
var curmonth=todaydate.getMonth()+1 //get current month (1-12)
var curyear=todaydate.getFullYear() //get current year
</script>
<table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="3">
<tr>
<td width="33%">
<script>
document.write(buildCal(curmonth-1 ,curyear, "main", "month", "daysofweek", "days", 1));
</script></td>
<td width="33%">
<script>
document.write(buildCal(curmonth ,curyear, "main", "month", "daysofweek", "days", 1));
</script></td>
<td width="34%">
<script>
document.write(buildCal(curmonth+1 ,curyear, "main", "month", "daysofweek", "days", 1));
</script></td>
</tr>
</table>
The Whole Year Dynamically
<form>
<select onChange="updatecalendar(this.options)">
<script type="text/javascript">
var themonths=['January','February','March','April','May','June',
'July','August','September','October','November','December']
var todaydate=new Date()
var curmonth=todaydate.getMonth()+1 //get current month (1-12)
var curyear=todaydate.getFullYear() //get current year
function updatecalendar(theselection){
var themonth=parseInt(theselection[theselection.selectedIndex].value)+1
var calendarstr=buildCal(themonth, curyear, "main", "month", "daysofweek", "days", 0)
if (document.getElementById)
document.getElementById("calendarspace").innerHTML=calendarstr
}
document.write('<option value="'+(curmonth-1)+'" selected="yes">Current Month</option>')
for (i=0; i<12; i++) //display option for 12 months of the year
document.write('<option value="'+i+'">'+themonths[i]+' '+curyear+'</option>')
</script>
</select>
<div id="calendarspace">
<script>
//write out current month's calendar to start
document.write(buildCal(curmonth, curyear, "main", "month", "daysofweek", "days", 0))
</script>
</div>
</form>
<select onChange="updatecalendar(this.options)">
<script type="text/javascript">
var themonths=['January','February','March','April','May','June',
'July','August','September','October','November','December']
var todaydate=new Date()
var curmonth=todaydate.getMonth()+1 //get current month (1-12)
var curyear=todaydate.getFullYear() //get current year
function updatecalendar(theselection){
var themonth=parseInt(theselection[theselection.selectedIndex].value)+1
var calendarstr=buildCal(themonth, curyear, "main", "month", "daysofweek", "days", 0)
if (document.getElementById)
document.getElementById("calendarspace").innerHTML=calendarstr
}
document.write('<option value="'+(curmonth-1)+'" selected="yes">Current Month</option>')
for (i=0; i<12; i++) //display option for 12 months of the year
document.write('<option value="'+i+'">'+themonths[i]+' '+curyear+'</option>')
</script>
</select>
<div id="calendarspace">
<script>
//write out current month's calendar to start
document.write(buildCal(curmonth, curyear, "main", "month", "daysofweek", "days", 0))
</script>
</div>
</form>
That was very easy. For more details please check the demo.
