If you have Operator for Firefox, you'll notice the events popping up on top and you can export the events to Outlook, add to your Google Calendar, etc. It's terribly sophisticated stuff and took me from 5:30am to 9am to figure it out to get it working, but now it works. Hopefully I'll be able to apply this to other calendar things. (fingers crossed!) hCalendar / iCalendar |
