Hi friends,
I need to make a calendar with some events.
I have created an events table with the parameters like:
eventid
event_from
event_till
recurring
recurring_after_day
event_type
userid

and so on.
My problem is to prepare a query which can give me events on a particular
day or rather all days(in case of calendar view is daily) ,months(if view is
monthly) and so on for year week including for events which are repeated
also, so that i can show that on my calendar.The query will run on a fairly
large no of users also so it should be efficient.

I think the catch is about the recurring events. As for them the entry will
be in one row and they will have virtually many rows one for each recurring
event.

So i want somthing like this for a particular userid :
event_on count(*) event_type
23 5 7
23 7 8
24 6 6
25 4 6
26 10 6
27 15
......

Pl. me
Thanks,
Abhishek jain
