Entering Daily Events

A Daily event is a one time, date specific activity. A meeting with Mrs. Smith from ABC Brokerage, on March 23 at 9 AM, is a Daily event. You can set a start time with or without an end time, or the event can be untimed (i.e., no start or end time).

In Day view you can add a new event to your calendar (see Adding Events to My Calendar). TorontoMLS displays the data entry page specific to the type of event you want to add (Daily, Duration, or Periodic).

Data Entry for a New Daily Calendar Event

Field

Definition

Event Title

Enter a short title for the event. This title displays on the calendar. Additional information can be added at the Event Details field.

Select Colors

Blue text on a white background is the is the default for event titles on your calendar. You can choose other colors for text and background for each entry. Click Select Colors to display the available palette. Background choices are shown on the left and text choices on the right. A "Sample Text" box previews your choices. Click Close, when finished, to return to the data entry page.

Border

Select this check box if you want a grey rectangular border to surround the title of this entry on your calendar display.

Event Details or URL Link

Enter any details for the event. This text is stored and displays in a smaller browser window when you click on the event title in Month view. It is also included in Day view.

As an alternative, you can enter a URL (Web site address). Once entered, when you click on the event title in Month view, the Web page displays. The URL is listed in Day view.

You cannot specify both event details and a URL.

This option is preselected. As such, when you click on a URL-linked event title the Web page opens in a new browser window. Close the window to return to TMLS.

You can cancel this selection. Note, however, that upon clicking the event title you exit TMLS when the Web page displays. (If at the Web page you determine you want to return to TMLS, click the browser's Back button to restore your session. If you close the browser, you close TMLS; see Starting TorontoMLS and Logging Off.)
