If I want to create an event calendar in JS, which allows the user to click each month day printed out, what would be the best approach to generate each day cell considering the fact that when the calendar is (re)loaded each event added by user is loaded to the respective day and month? Ex.: if the user has event for this day, print in the day cell for this day.

So most of this job will probably be server-side, do you use JS on the server? Otherwise this work might be done in whatever is normally used on the server.
