(Just to name a few site i visited)
What I want to achieve:
I am creating an web application that would allow users to create meetings and stuffs. (PHP, HTML, Javascript/JQuery, etc.). I found ics (ICalendars) to be very efficient and well structured and wanted to implement a variation of the ics standard in my application. But I wanted my meetings to have there own todos.
Question:
Can an .ics VEVENT contains a VTODO? Or is this not in the ics standards?
Something like this:
BEGIN:VCALENDAR
VERSION:2.0
PRODID:-//Foobar Corporation//NONSGML Foobar//EN
METHOD:REQUEST
CALSCALE:GREGORIAN
BEGIN:VEVENT
//Put VEVENT options and parameters here.
BEGIN:VTODO
//Put VTODO options and parameters here
END:VTODO
END:VEVENT
BEGIN:VEVENT
//Other VEVENT... Probably with its own VTODO
END:VEVENT
END:VCALENDAR
No, VEVENT may only contain VALARM.
Since you probably want to associate tasks to events,
You can use the RELATED-TO property for this. Using this property, you can relate events to todos. On the RELATED-TO property you can specify what type of relationship you want. The default relationshiptypes are PARENT, CHILD and SIBLING.
RELATED-TO uses the UID to identify other components. This property is required for every component anyway.
