Flex Calendar Component

This calendar component is great. It’s still has some bugs in it, but it’s my favorite Flex calendar component out there.

It was originally developed by Ely Greenfield and some bug fixes and enhancements were made by Jove Shi. This post exists because Jove’s site is offline and I’m sure people would like to benefit from his hard work, so I am hosting what I believe to be Jove’s latest source (download below). If Ely or Jove have a problem with me hosting it, please let me know and I’ll take it down.

  8. Hi, add calendar button works but it does show the added calendar information above the ‘Add Calendar’ button as specified in the app.mxml line 27
    I tried to debug and found calSet.calendars is always null. I understand there are more logic so that one can remove an added calendar but without something shown in the Databox, the removal will not work. Is there any latest version to make this work? Appreciate your reply.

  9. hi, typo from my last comment, Should be “add calendar button works but it does NOT show the added calendar information
