Problem adding time in iCal by the html5 Microformats!

  • Hi everyone, I just can't figure out why ical is showing wrong time. I did following code:

    <.abbr class="dtstart" title="2012-10-05T07:00">7am</abbr>
    <.abbr class="dtstart" title="20121005T0700">7</abbr>
    <.abbr class="dtstart" title="2012-10-05T20:00+00:00">8</abbr> 
    

    ical shows date and location exactly but time it doesn't work.

  • I'm pretty sure that the full-stop (period) in front of .abbr is not supposed to be there.

  • Haha no actually I wanted to show my code here. So I have to break the rule . I had written without the period in editor. As i mentioned the ical shows the date perfectly but not the time. Oh and my time zone is of Apple asia, if it matters.

    Thanq for your concern paulie!

  • I can't see a problem there! Are you testing in many browsers? If not it might just be a bug?

  • The problem is not showing in the browser. The problem is after importing the events in the calender. The ical(mac) shows the correct date but wrong time and in some case no time. Even its entered!
