            &calid=jdoe;john
            &dtstart=0
            &dtend=0

Example 2

The following HTML generates a POST message using the export command, producing files in both iCalendar and XML formats:

<form METHOD=POST ENCTYPE="multipart/form-data"  
NAME="john.ics"
ACTION="http://calendarserver:12345/export.wcap
               ?id=t9u9m0eh8x5pu9b&calid=jdoe;john&dtstart=0&dtend=0
               &content-out=text/calendar"\>
<ul\>
 <li\>Press Export ICAL Now:<input type="submit" 
                            value="Export ICAL now"\>
</li\> </ul\> </form\>
<form METHOD=POST ENCTYPE="multipart/form-data" NAME="john.xml"
ACTION="http://calendarserver:12345/export.wcap
               ?id=t9u9m0eh8x5pu9b&calid=jdoe;john&dtstart=0
               &dtend=0&content-out=text/xml"\>
<ul\>
 <li\>Press Export XML Now:<input type="submit" 
                           value="Export XML now”\>
</ul\> </form\>

This is the output generated:
