Would there be a way of scheduling events so that they dont appear on the website until after a specified date?

Thanks.

Sorry about asking for too much up front :\

I updated the CalendarEventClass

class CalendarEvent extends Page
{
	static $db = array (
		...
		'ActivationDate' => 'Date'
	);
}

I'm having problems finding out what the syntax would be to compare this field with the current date. I've narrowed it down to modifying Calendar.ss about here

...
<% if Events %>
	<div id="events">
		<% control Events %>

I thought of encapsulating the remainder of the control block into something like

<% if $ActivationDate < time() %>
...
<% end_if %>

It doesn't work. heh.
Can anyone tell me the correct syntax please?

Still trying to understand this code ...

In the file Calendar.php there's protected members $start_date and $end_date that appear global to the class. There's also a function 'Events' which the template file is 'control'-ing to display the list of event on the website. The function 'Events' takes a bunch of arguments, including the variables $start_date and $end_date. Why is that ? Are these new $start_date and $end_date variables?
Shouldn't the function 'Events' naturally have access to these variables ?

Regards,

Well, I've given up trying to accomplish the date activation that way.
Does anyone (apart from unclechee$e) know how to add another date to the Dates and Times tab of the CMS?
