ok??  Maintaining a complicated set of markup (very complicated)
on a single page.... that's easier?

Which implies that you are manipulating ALL of the events
quite often??

Take a look at:
http://pmwiki.org/wiki/Test/Cjc

(:pmcal cals=Cjc caltype=text monthsahead=1 expire=-1 zebra=false textcalfmt=%20 textdatefmt='%A, %B %e, %Y':)

It shows events starting with today and out for one month comming out of the Cjc calendar.

textcalfmt gets rid of the identifier showing where the calendar came from (Cjc) and
textdatefmt isn't necessary... just depends on how you like the dates to be formatted.

By default (also configurable), the date links will take you to the page on the calendar
where you could have more detail.

Just an option.
