The Day View Page

The name of the file that displays the day view page is dayview.jsp. On a browser, this page displays the current calendar ID, the date, and a summary of any tasks or events currently scheduled. The displayed page also provides options that users can select in order to add a new event, add a new task, view other calendars, or reset the calendar to a specific date. In the source code, such options are specified as <util:link> from the util tag library, as described in <util:link>.

The calendar application allows users to add two basic kinds of scheduling objects: events, and tasks. Events and tasks are similar in that they both contain generic properties such as title, location, and details, but differ in that events specify a start and end time, whereas tasks specify a due date and indicate whether or not the task is complete.
