I have it working in the template. for each day, I loop though all the Event
objects, and ifequal out the ones for the current day. seems inefficient, but
low volume site, so fine for now. If someone can give me some code that is
better, im all ears.
{% for week in dates %}
<tr>
{% for day in week %}
<td>
{{ day|date:"j" }}
{% for obj in object_list %}
{% ifequal obj.eventdate day %}
{{ obj.title }}
{% endifequal %}
{% endfor %}
</td>
{% endfor %}
</tr>
{% endfor %}
Thanks for listening.
