@thedrunkduck: Sorry to hear it's not working. This time it doesn't seem to be a change in Google Calendar as it still works with Firefox 2. Could you look into your javascript console (Extras->Error console or something like that) and maybe post the error messages you get there? Thanks!

Doesn't work on Firefox 3.
I've tried all the possible combination ((20071231), month (200712) or year (2007)), but the date doesnt change.

Ok, another tiny modification necessary due to code changes. Should work again. ( Until when? ;-) )

Ok, thanks for pushing me. Just uploaded a hopefully more robust version of the script.

It now tries to automatically adapt to (small) changes in Google Calendar.

@seaniz: Oh, one more thing: The mouse-wheel scrolling script is not by me!

@seaniz: The problem is that Google Calendar's internals vary quite frequently such that I have to adjust the script often. This situation is not good of course. I am currently thinking of a method to make the script more robust. Currently I can only ask you to wait a bit. Sorry!

Hey there, I really like your mouse-wheel scrolling date script it works very well and it's handy.

As for this script it doesn't seem to work. I can see the change has taken effect but whenever I enter a date, any date, it just goes back to today again.

Perhaps this is due to the fact that I always use the secure server?

I'd appreciate it if you could have a tinker . . . Thanks for everything.

Hi there...

What I really want to do is present an embedded google calender on my webpage and set it up to present the same month view (ie not today) to all viewers...

Your script is the closest thing I've found so far but I don't know how to make it work with an embedded google calender...

First, this code for setting the date doesn't seem to work for the embedded version of the calender... And second I don't know if any other setup is needed to put this code directly into my webpage so you don't need greasemonkey to see the date I want you to see...

Or do you know of another way to get the effect I'm after? :)

Another tiny update:
Now automatically selects the date in the input box for simpler overwriting.

Ok, tiny updates:
- updated mouse cursor to show a hand when over the date field
- now applies to both http and https
- appended * to the URL match to allow parameters
