dhtmlxScheduler is a web-based JavaScript events calendar that provides a rich and intuitive scheduling solution similar to MS Outlook Calendar, Apple's iCal, or Google Calendar. The events can be displayed in different views (Day, Week, Month, Year, Agenda, etc.) Advanced drag-and-drop functionality allows users to change date and time of an event by easily moving or resizing event boxes. Very lightweight (about 20Kb gzipped) and fast-performing, the calendar uses Ajax to smoothly update and display the events schedule.

dhtmlxScheduler offers an extensive JavaScript API and a wide range of events providing full control over the look and feel of the calendar. Developers can easily add/update events, customize calendar appearance, and change the date format or calendar language.

Along with a clean look and swift performance, the calendar provides the most requested features:

• Recurring events, which can be configured on a daily, weekly, monthly or yearly basis.
• Multiple Resources View to display several calendars for different resources (e.g. users, office locations, product items) simultaneously.
• TimeLine View for simple and effective visualization of events assigned to different resources (e.g. users, departments).
• Map View to associate events with locations and display them on Google Maps.
• Data export to XML, JSON, and iCal formats, as well as the ability to load calendar data from a JSON file or object.
• Printing by serialization to PDF format (requires PHP server).
• Integration with server database by means of dhtmlxConnector or your own server-side code written in any language (PHP, Java, .Net, ASP, etc.). Please see the documentation included in the dhtmlxScheduler package for instructions and samples.

Our Ajax event calendar comes with two predefined skins. To customize the color scheme for the skin, you can use Skin Builder, an online tool that allows you to define custom colors for each element of the calendar interface.

Mobile Scheduler

If you want to embed a scheduler into a mobile web application, there is a special version of dhtmlxScheduler optimized for touchscreen devices. It offers an intutivie scheduling interface that works natively on mobile phones (iPhone, Android smartphones, etc.).

The server side of the mobile version is compatible with the original dhtmlxScheduler so you can fully reuse existing server-side code. On the client side it has slightly different set of events and templates, but uses the similar principles and API. So it's easy to use if you have worked with dhtmlxScheduler before.
