1. Recurring Event Bug

There may be a bug in piCal's "Recur Yes" calculation. In entering a Meeting event on the 2nd Thursday of each month starting on August 12 and ending on December 9, there were two problems: (a) the meeting was assigned to Friday, November 12th; (b) the meeting was not assigned to December 9th.

As a workaround, the ending date was changed to November 11, and a separate non-recurring event was added for November 11.
I don't think the extracting routine itself for recurring events has such a bug.
The problem is easily caused by a viriety of wrong settings.
- The server has summer time (I think it is a wrong setting)
- Wrong setting of timezones

You can check it this site.
The event will be extracted correctly.

2. Holiday Data

piCal appears to store holiday dates in the piCal/language/english/pical_vars.phtml file. These values determine (at least) the background color (in the calendar) of the specified dates.

Is there any documentation on parameter specifications and the format of this file?
I don't have such a documentation.
But the structure is quite easy.
You can specify the holiday's data like this:
language/(your language)/pical_vars.html
$this->holidays = array( '(Formats of Y-n-j)' => 1 , ... );
Formats of Y-n-j is not compatible Y-m-d like ISO.
Sep 1 2004 in US English should be written as 2004-9-1 instead of 2004-09-01.

3. Browser crash on popup date entry

Oh, yeah, by the way, using the pop-up calendar feature to enter dates for events has crashed my browser (Safari) a few times.
hmmm.
piCal uses the calendar of XOOPS core.
If you can, claim it core team.
As I don't have Mac, I can't debug it.
