This is a great widget!! I only have a suggestion: can you display the top line with a smaller font and instead display the whole date along with the time? This is the only thing that prevents me to have permanently ON.
Frankly I can't believe it. I just scanned the whole comments list and I see no solution to the issue I've encountered since I installed this widget, an issue that many users have politely identified repeatedly during the past 10 months. I see no response at all from the author.
The widget's primary purpose is to display the date, however when the clock strikes midnight, the day and date DOES NOT change.
Am I missing something? A fix maybe? Some other rational explanation why so many folks rave about a tool that doesn't fulfill it's primary purpose?
Sorry if this seems like a flame, but I'm incredulous, somebody please help me.
v1.4 (with amended USA holidays) shows Thanksgiving on both wrong and right day (because the old wrong "rep" entry remains, along with specific dates for multiple years); Christmas (Dec 25) is missing its trailing semicolon, hence appends the next line to "Christmas"
After I removed wrong or duplicate "rep" entries and fixed "Christmas" all was well.
Thanks again for nice widget, and anyone can update or customize holidays (add family birthdays, etc.) by simply replacing their holiday schedule (in my case: holidays/usa.js) within the zip file.
It could be nice to be able to select different sizes for the calendar, say "compact", "normal", "maximized". I appreciate the compact size of the "compact" skin, but doesn't like to much the skin in itself. In its most reduced form it could for instance match the height of the windows bar.
Some other examples for the week number abreviations...
week is abreviated as wk (Wk or WK). workweek for business is abreviated as WW (WW01 sometimes WW-01 or WW 01). on most callendars week is abreviated as W (W01). on some callendars week number is used and abbreviated as WkNo (WkNo 01).
As for the week numbering system, it gets very confusing depending on how it's done. Sometimes, days in January fall in the last week of December. The International Organization for Standardization has the best explanation for this. Check it out at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_week_date.
подскажите по подробней, как исправить кодировку в русской версии(что бы хорошо показывало праздники,а не закорючки). Как у ExMax, у меня не получается.
I can't seem to make this widget work. It downloads and then Opera asks me if I want to keep the widget. However, I can't see the calendar. It is in the taskbar, but I can't make it show up on the screen. I am using Opera 9.01 on Windows XP.
Very beautiful, love the dark glass. One thing I would love to see is a fixed height so that the forward and backward buttons don't move up and down, it would make scrolling through much easier and quicker. An 'other' option for country would be good for those in countries that are not listed or who don't want the holiday days.

BTW, is there any way to make the font smaller?
