FUNCTION:
Provides a calendar display of articles postings sorted by month using creation_date parameter 
Can return articles from all categories OR return articles based on supplied category ID 
(1) In cases where only one article is found - creates hyperlink to that article   
>>>  _.index.php?id=XX,YY,0,0,1,0     or    _. XX.YY.0.0.1.0.phtml  if $phpwcms["rewrite_url"] = 1;
(2) In cases where more than one article is found, creates hyperlink to redirect page. 
Redirect page parses the GET parameter

(2) an article for that category with the replacement tag {SHOW_ARTICLES} found within it.

A large section of this code draws from TEASER_EX replacementtag (by Erich Munz, 2006)
BIG THANKS to ERICH !!!!
It does not include many of the more elaborate formatting and parameter options - its a poor main's version - hehe

FUNCTIONS
Outputs articles in SUMMARY FORMAT (defined in backend) according to date parameter
(1) d=20060729 - YYYYMMDD  - calendar sends this parameter from individual day hyperlinks
in this case outputs articles for a given day
(2) d=200607 - YYYYMM - (no day parameter included) - calendar header (prev - next) sends this parameter
in this case outputs articles for an entire month - similar to monthly archive
(3) if  d=..... parameter is not defined...the script outputs results for the last 30 days
ALSO: paramters can also be sent via embedded links elsewhere in phpwcms - for custom output
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
INSTRUCTIONS
(1) Requires the creation of a separate categories in backend IE alias: show_articles, show_news_articles, etc
(2) Requires an article for that category with the replacement tag {SHOW_ARTICLES:[INT]} to be found within it.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
USAGE:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
{SHOW_ARTICLES:0} - returns all articles regardless of category
{SHOW_ARTICLES:2} - returns all articles of category ID (2) 
- good for simple news section 

Special Note: dont forget to sychronize !
{SHOW_ARTICLES:0}  with {SHOW_ARTICLE_CALENDAR:0}  
{SHOW_ARTICLES:2}  with {SHOW_ARTICLE_CALENDAR:2}  
etc..

sending category parameters via GET is on the todo list....
