NEWB Alert! Event data editing

Non-technical Questions Docs and Samples
#1

Hi,
Please forgive my massive ignorance, but I’m trying to understand how to simply edit the existing ‘Mobile XML’ data source contained within the ‘Data’ folder of ‘Exmaples’.

When I change the event details (such as the title & date of an already existing event) in my XML editor & save the file, the changes arent reflected when I reload the calendar.

Please be gentle, I have spent a considerable amount of time trying to figure this out & any advice to a total newb would be very much appreciated.

Thanks :slight_smile:

Most probably it is a data caching ( browser do like to cache static files, such as xml files )

You can locate line which loads data

scheduler.load(“some.xml”) or url:“some.xml”

and change it as

scheduler.load(“some.xml?1”) or url:“some.xml?1”

If you plan to change the xml often, you can adjust code like

scheduler.load(“some.xml?uid=”+(new Date()).valueOf())
or
url:“some.xml?uid=”+(new Date()).valueOf()"
