iCalendar feed generation - El Forum - 03-18-2008
[eluser]acesfull9[/eluser]
So I have been working for hours on how to create an iCalendar feed.
Here is the dilemma, I can subscribe to remote iCal files just fine, I can keep an up to date iCalendar file on the server that anyone can subscribe to and things work fine, the only thing is I would have to keep that up to date every time an event was changed which could be a huge hassle.
So I figured it would be much easier to just compile one large iCalendar file on the fly. So I have that accomplished, but when I try to import the feed I get a parse error in outlook and sunbird. Which is weird because I can save that file to the server and subscribe to it just fine as described above.
Here is my view, all my controller is doing is loading it.
Code:
<?
$filename="test.ics";
header("Mime-Version: 1.0");
header("Content-type: text/calendar;");
header("method=request;");
header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="' . $filename .'"');

There is no error description in outlook.
I think the error is somewhere in the header() but I am really not sure. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
