Changelog

The site now carries the project logo. The OnlineCalendar.pro mark has been refreshed and replaced everywhere it appears.

Text in exported PDFs and images is now printed in solid black instead of dark grey. Headings, panel text, the list of events and the credit line at the foot of the sheet are all affected. Grey has to be printed as a pattern of separated dots, which at the size of an exported calendar reads as washed out or slightly out of focus; solid black is laid down as one ink, so the edges of the letters stay crisp — and nothing is lost when you print in black and white or in draft quality.

Week numbers and day names are now set smaller in the exported sheet than they are on screen. The printed grid is far tighter than the one in your browser, and at the on-screen size these two small labels crowded the dates and risked touching one another. They now have a size chosen for paper. On screen they are unchanged.

Choosing a state, province or region in a country that spans several time zones now updates the time and the UTC offset shown in the status bar. Previously they stayed on the zone the page had opened with: every US state showed New York time, every Australian state showed Sydney time. Fixed for all eleven affected countries — the United States, Canada, Australia, Mexico, France, Spain, Portugal, the Netherlands, Denmark, Finland and Norway — and checked one by one against the real time in each zone.

Places that sit half an hour off the hour are now shown correctly: Northern Territory and South Australia as UTC+9:30 rather than UTC+9, Newfoundland and Labrador as UTC−2:30 rather than UTC−2.

Aruba, Svalbard and Baja California can now be picked and the time follows. These regions keep the same public holidays as the rest of their country, and for that reason the calendar used to treat choosing them as a change of name only — even though they are in a different time zone.

The date now follows the region as well, not just the time. Picking Hawaii from the United States showed the correct Hawaiian time but still marked the following day as today — and a public holiday taking place that day could appear among the ones already past. Choosing a region no longer moves you away from the month you were looking at: only today changes.

The clock in the status bar could run behind the real time — by anything from a few minutes to well over an hour, depending on the page. It now always shows the current time in the time zone of the country you are looking at, and it stays right no matter how long the page has been open or how you reached it. Checked across Europe, North America, Asia and Australia, including countries that are currently on summer time.

Just after midnight, a public holiday or long weekend that had already passed could still be listed among the upcoming ones. Each country now rolls over to the new day at its own local midnight: the Swiss pages change over at midnight in Zurich, the Australian ones at midnight in Sydney. Days when the clocks go forward or back are handled correctly.

The highlight marking today could stay on the previous day after midnight. It now follows the local date of the country shown.

Mexico is now available, with all 32 states. The seven national public holidays are included, along with the years in which three of them moved to a fixed Monday, and the presidential inauguration day that recurs every six years.

Australia is now available, with all 8 states and territories. Only seven holidays apply nationwide: everything else — including the King's Birthday and Labour Day, which fall on different dates in different states — is listed per state. Part-day public holidays on Christmas Eve and New Year's Eve are included where they apply.

Canada is now available in English and French, with all 13 provinces and territories. Thanksgiving, Victoria Day, Remembrance Day and Boxing Day are not nationwide holidays in Canada, so they are shown only where they actually apply.

The country selector now offers 36 countries. Picking a state or province updates both the holidays shown and the time zone used by the calendar.

Holidays that shift to a substitute day are now handled correctly in every case, including the Australian sequence where Christmas falls on a Sunday and the following holiday moves on by two days.

Pages now load faster: non-essential scripts and animations no longer delay the first view, so the calendar appears sooner — most noticeably on mobile.

The region you select by hand is now reliably kept after you refresh the page or move between pages, for every country. Previously, on some countries a chosen region — for example Svalbard in Norway — could revert to the default after a reload.
