Dynamic Calendar
A dynamic Calendar is an excellent way to offer current and up-to-date information to your visitors. You are able to manage the data yourself so that you can post new events at your convenience. The program is designed to automatically remove or strike-through the event once the date has passed, preventing old, stale data from displaying on your website. No need to go back and remove the item from your calendar. That is one less thing you have to worry about.

A graphic representation of the calendar is also available, to give a snapshot view of days with events.
