Question a tricky subject
ok im trieing to make a scheduel script like what this page has http://leagues.theigs.com/gr/ViewTe...action=schedule

now i got everything down except for the part where they match up the correct day numbers with the day names based on what month you are viewing. if anyone has a solution please help because i am truly stumped.

now this is my code below:

Code:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
<title>Scheduel</title>
</head>

<body>
<cfset loopnumber = 1>
<cfset cellcount = 1>
<cfset numberofdays = #DaysInMonth(dateformat(now()))#>
<cfset totalrows = 7>
<cfset totalrowscountdown = totalrows - 0>
<table width="536" cellspacing="10" cellpadding="0" border="0" class="style">
<tr>
  <td align="center"><strong>Sun</strong></td>
  <td align="center"><strong>Mon</strong></td>
  <td align="center"><strong>Tue</strong></td>
  <td align="center"><strong>Wed</strong></td>
  <td align="center"><strong>Thu</strong></td>
  <td align="center"><strong>Fri</strong></td>
  <td align="center"><strong>Sat</strong></td>
</tr>
<cfloop index="i" from="1" to="#numberofdays#">
<cfif #cellcount# is 1>
<tr>
</cfif>

<td width="100" align="center" valign="top">

<table width="100" border="0" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="4" bgcolor="666666" class="style">
  <tr>
    <td height="75" valign="top" bgcolor="<cfif "#day(dateformat(now()))#" is "#loopnumber#">f6f6f6<cfelse>cccccc</cfif>" align="left">
	<cfoutput>#loopnumber#</cfoutput>
	</td>
  </tr>
</table>


</td>

<cfif #cellcount# is 7>
</tr>
</cfif>

<cfset totalrowscountdown = totalrowscountdown - 1>

<cfif #totalrowscountdown# is 0>

<cfset cellsleft = 7 - #cellcount#>

<cfif #cellsleft# is 0>
</tr>
<cfelse>

<cfloop condition="#cellscount# GREATER THAN OR EQUAL TO 1">
<td width="100" align="center">&nbsp;</td>
<cfset cellscount = cellscount - 1>

<cfif #cellscount# is 0>
</tr>
</cfif>

</cfloop>
</cfif>

</cfif>

<cfif #cellcount# is 7>
<cfset cellcount = 1>
<cfelse>
<cfset cellcount = cellcount + 1>
</cfif>
<cfset loopnumber = #loopnumber# + 1>
</cfloop>
</table>

If you're just trying to output a calendar I think it can be done more simply, something like this:

Code:
<cfoutput>
<cfset targetMonth = '12/1/2004' />
<cfset firstDayOfMonthDayOfWeek = dayOfWeek( '#month( targetMonth )#/1/#year( targetMonth )#' ) /> <br /> 
<cfset dayCounter = 1 />
<cfset monthStarted = false />

<table border="1">
	<tr>
		<td>Sun</td>
		<td>Mon</td>
		<td>Tues</td>
		<td>Wed</td>
		<td>Thurs</td>
		<td>Fri</td>
		<td>Sat</td>
	</tr>  
	<cfloop condition="#dayCounter# lte #daysInMonth( targetMonth )#">
	<tr>
		<cfloop index="thisDayOfWeek" from="1" to="7">
		<td>
			<cfif firstDayOfMonthDayOfWeek eq thisDayOfWeek and not monthStarted>
				#dayCounter#
				<cfset monthStarted = true />
			<cfelseif monthStarted and dayCounter lte daysInMonth( targetMonth )>
				#dayCounter#
			<cfelse>
				&nbsp; 	
			</cfif>
		</td>
		<cfif monthStarted>
			<cfset dayCounter = dayCounter + 1>
		</cfif>
		</cfloop>
	</tr>
	</cfloop>
</table>
</cfoutput>

ok I got your code to work perfectly but i made some adjustments and now i get an error when i run it on the 11th month of the year. here is my code below.

Code:
<center>
<cfoutput>
<cfset targetMonth = '#monthID#/#day(1)#/#yearID#' />
<cfset firstDayOfMonthDayOfWeek = dayOfWeek( '#month( targetMonth )#/1/#year( targetMonth )#' ) /> <br /> 
<cfset dayCounter = 1 />
<cfset monthStarted = false />

<cfset nextmonth = #monthID# + 1>
<cfif "#nextmonth#" gt "12">
  <cfset nextmonth = 1>
  <cfset nextyear = #yearID# + 1>
<cfelse>
  <cfset nextyear = #yearID#>
</cfif>

<cfset prevmonth = #monthID# - 1>
<cfif "#prevmonth#" lt "1">
  <cfset prevmonth = 12>
  <cfset prevyear = #yearID# - 1>
<cfelse>
  <cfset prevyear = #yearID#>
</cfif>

Are you passing in the date with that quote mark at the end? Because 1/31/2004 IS a valid date. But 1/31/2004" is not a valid date due to the quote mark.

Well something must not be passing correctly, because this code returns true:

#isDate( '1/31/2004' )#

I'm thinking maybe this part is incorrect:

<cfset targetMonth = '#monthID#/#day(1)#/#yearID#' />

Try this instead:

<cfset targetMonth = '#monthID#/1/#yearID#' />

The day() function expects a full date, not just a day of the month as a single value.
