"dwCalendar" is a fancy calendar plugin written with jQuery you can use in your pages to display events in a fashionable way. To install the plugin, extract zip content in any location on your webserver and adjust references to images and JSON inside the script and the CSS; to add the calendar to your page, simply add a div inside the code and apply the plugin upon the div you just added.

$(document).ready(function () {
	var d = new Date();
	$('#calendar').calendar('show',
				{date : d, 
				events: 'events.json'});
})
<div id="calendar"></div>

Note: the JSON must be housed on the same server as the script, due to browser cross-domain request limitations. If you want to overcome these limitations, simply rename events.json and month-setup.json to events.php and months-setup.php and add at the very beginning of both the scripts the directive "header('Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *')". Finally rename the JSON reference in "dwcalendar.js".
