You would most certainly NOT BE CORRECT. I've had my own server running Apache for years. I don't think this is something that can be solved with html tags, but I will try Brad's suggestions. Read man calendar about how it uses cpp, and how the calendar.* files are formatted. If I recall, I used this same technique years ago and had a simple, elegant way of solving it using some default tool like col, though that doesn't seem to work now.
