iCal files need extension of .ics to work properly #2

Open theconsultant opened 11 years ago

theconsultant commented 11 years ago

The generated ical event files need to have the suffix of .ics added for them to be recognized by iCal. Other than that they work perfectly!

Thanks for the heads up, going to fix this right away!

theconsultant commented 11 years ago

Cool! let me know once the fix is in and i'll be happy to test it..

Cheers,

Dave

Hi Dave, just looked into this... the iCal downloaded have an extension of .ics. The downloaded file works with my MacBook Calendar App. Here is the live example: http://carlsednaoui.github.io/ouical/example.html

Let me know if it's not working for you and I can look at it again. Closing for now, happy to re-open if needed.

Cheers!

OK, this is weird.. it works fine in Chrome and Firefox, but Safari just gives me files called "unknown", unlike in Chrome/Firefox where I get "download.ics" files.

Ok, thanks so much! Reopened the issue, will look into the specificity of Safari.

I'm curious, have you found any workaround for this yet?

carlsednaoui commented 10 years ago

Hi @kryp71c, I started refactoring this lib here https://github.com/carlsednaoui/add-to-calendar-buttons/tree/refactor but got caught up with other projects =/ will try to put some work into it in the coming weeks, sorry about that

Ah, so many things to do, so little time in a day :)
