This may be a far fetched request, but is there any way to add events to iCal without being in iCal? I have absolutely no idea how this would be accomplished, perhaps parsing through emails sent to the machine that has iCal on it. If anyone has any ideas or has started anything like this, I would be interested in hearing about it.

Thanks in advance for any responses.

Unless you have iCal set to subscribe to a calendar with events, but it might need to open to do so.

Or just open iCal and set it to hide.

Actually, what I was hoping to accomplish was to publish a calendar online. I already have it automatically publishing online, but I was hoping that I could somehow post events to it from outside my computer. That way I could post without being at my Mac.

Are you publishing it through .Mac?

No, I am using http://phpicalendar.net/ and they now have a method that you don't need a WebDAV server.

I also use that and if you read their forum, U'll see that it's a demanded feature and one that users are working on. U'll be way better off checking out that forum. Here's the thread.
