When I run the app every place where I have "12pm" or "7pm" or anything that looks like a time show up as a hyperlink. How do I make the time a legitimate link that would open up in the calendar application of the device? What I basically want to do is have it so you could click on the link and an new event screen appears prepopulated with event data. Thanks for your help in advance!

Just a guess here - on the HTML screen's control panel, if you click on "document behavior" it will expand to show a bunch of different options. Try setting the "Detect Phone / Address links" option to "no" I'm not sure if that option applies to dates, but it's worth a shot Comments Hey David, welcome to Buzztouch!

Since I'm on a time crunch on this app I'm going to make it so they don't have the links for now. I'll come back later and see if I can figure out how to make the links open the calendar. Thank you so much! David Comments It looks like that worked well! Since I'm on a time crunch on this app I'm going to make it so they don't have the links for now.
