fgcolor="black" bgimg="" border="gold"> 
    <tooltip>this is a test</tooltip> 
    <action>alert(123)</action> 
  </event> 
  <event year="2005" month="1" date="1" bgcolor="green"
border="null"> 
    <tooltip>this is a new test</tooltip> 
    <action/> 
    <html><![CDATA[ 
<br> 
<b>this is a new test</b> 
    ]]></html> 
  </event> 
</agenda>

Another feature worth mentioning is that the CalendarXP was designed from scratch to house and display all kinds of daily events, which made it outstanding from the other javascript calendar you may find on the internet. It includes advanced features such as displaying events in every weekday of the month, multiple events in any date and even recurring events, e.g. Easter holidays. The events are stored in a seperate, simple javascript file. You may edit the agenda file and upload it to your web host. Alternatively you could choose to dynamically generate the agenda file from your backend database. You may also include HTML code in the event text so as to display images or links.
