Calendar Usage

This calendar was created as a way for the public to read our Exchange 2000 Public folder Calendar with a friendlier view than Outlook Web Access. Side affects include being able to view multiple calendars at once, setting colors and other features of each calendar and a few other neat features. All these features can be reached from the settings page, but can also be called directly as described below. Rather than reading all the stuff below, most people will find it much easier to use the settings page and bookmark the results. For example, if you would like the master calendar to be in bold, then use the settings page and change only the master calendar setting to bold, submit your change and bookmark/favorite the result. One minor thing to note is that military time is used on all the calendars (1300 = 1 p.m., 1430 =2:30 p.m., etc.)

option example how it works
Base URL http[s]://email.nmmi.edu/mc/cal.asp The "s" after http can be added to encrypt all requests, this generally is not needed, although is a real good idea for any faculty/staff/cadets using this calendar from off campus.
General use ?variable=value&variable2=value Below are the variables and values that can be used to customize these calendar. Each variable=value set is separated by an &. This series of variable=value[&variable=value] follows the Base URL and a single question mark.
