Re: How do I display Google Calendar Event "description" field using Feeds API?

[Jeremy Geerdes]

You can use the JS Feeds API to get the feed in MIXED format. Then, you can build a control that uses DOM methods (or the API's google.feeds.getElementsByTagNameNS) to get the value you want and use that to build your entries' HTML nodes.

I have a feed set up and it's working fine with one problem. I cannot find a way to display the event's "description" field using any of the JS APIs. I DO NOT want to have to write server-side authenticated code just to retrieve a public field.

Is there a way to get the Calendar Event Feed to put the "description" field into the "content" or "contentSnippet" node(s)?

Also, why doesn't the "content" node ALREADY include this? "Description" seems way more important, useful, and desirable than, say, "confirmed".

Is there a way, using only AJAX non-authenticated calls, to get the "description" of a Google Calendar Event by eventID? Is there a way to just feed the event's "link" into a subsequent call and pick the description out?

Thanks for any help.

Hi - having the same problem. Did you resolve it? 

[Jeremy Geerdes]

If you have your calendar set to share all details with the world, the event details *should* be placed in the feed entry's content field.
