Hi about the mod that lets you extract calendar info from E-Blah and put it in a web page:
http://www.eblah.com/forum/m-1117815566/

I saved the perl script to a file called calendar.pl which i chmodded to 755. In the same directory as that file i also have a .htaccess file which has:
AddHandler cgi-script .pl
Options -Indexes +ExecCGI

I tried including it into a table cell within a php web page, index.php, using the php directive
<? include('includes/calendar.pl'); ?>
but when i view the web page, instead of the calendar info, i see the source code of the calendar.pl file in the table cell.

So the problem seems to be that the perl script is not executing in my index.php file. It is just treated as text. Am i doing something wrong?

Ok i think i have been using the wrong php directive. I changed it to:
<? exec('perl includes/calendar.pl'); ?>
And the source code is no longer appearing in the table cell. However, nothing is appearing in the cell.

I also changed the .htaccess in the perl file directory to say:
AddType perl-script .pl
AddHandler perl-script .pl

i will go tinker with it more. Maybe something setting the perl file is not set right.

I have now managed to the the perl file to execute in its directory, with htaccess settings:
AddType perl-script .pl
AddHandler cgi-script pl
Options -Indexes +ExecCGI

However i still can't get it to execute within the php file.

Also, although the perl script runs when i access it directly by typing it's url in the browser address bar (i know it runs because i added some print commands to the bottom of it to test it), it does not display the calendar info.

I had a look at Prefs/Events.txt and it was 0 bytes long! There are calendar events in my E-Blah calendar, i can see them when i log in, but they are not stored in Prefs/Events.txt. I found a perl file called Calendar.pl in the E-Blah Code directory and it uses a file called Prefs/Events2.txt but that contains only things like users registering, not the events that i see in the calendar.
Any idea where they are stored? My E-Blah version is 10.2.5

I have since found out that it is Events2.txt after all that the calendar data is stored in, at least in my upgrade version of E-Blah 10.2.5. I have also managed to get the script to read the data from it and process it correctly. Now my challlenge is to get it to execute within a php file.

I have now got it working for my installation of E-Blah 10.2.5, see this thread to download the updated version:
