Hello, I want to create a calendar with special text and background color for holidays and some other dates. This is for printing, but a HTML file seems a good choice, independent of changing text processing software and easier to code with Python than a script which fills in a Word or OpenOffice template.
So I looked into the calendar module and made a LocalHTMLCalendar subclass. Putting in additional style classes for "my" dates wasn't difficult, but there is one thing I don't like at all: the methods formatmonth() and formatyear() both return tables with explicit and ugly formatting: <table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="month"> and the same for class="year". This overrides the settings I make in the style sheet. Of course I can overwrite these methods, but why do it like this? The output is made for use with a style sheet, so why use direct formatting at this point? Thanks for explanations and advice, Sibylle -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
