title: PHP AJAX mysql event calendar - UI for events spanning multiple days
body: <p>I have built a PHP calendar system and have pretty much everything done but not sure how to deal with a UI issue involving how the events that stretched out over a couple of days. I want to be able to stretch an event that stretches over couple of days in a div that spans those days in the calendar. Basically I would like to know how to achieve what <a href="http://www.dhtmlx.com/docs/products/dhtmlxScheduler/sample_recurring.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">these guys have achieved with the event that stretches out from 21st to 22nd with the yellow div background</a>. </p>
  
  <p>I have been trying to see how I can do it with PHP but I feel like I might be trying the wrong thing. Perhaps this is done with javascript? </p>
