I am utilizing a combination of Solspace 'Calendar', 'Playa', and 'Google Maps for ExpressionEngine'. I'm having a strange issue where the dates aren't showing up correctly in my infowindows on the Google Map, but they show up fine using the same code outside of the infowindow.
So, I have a 'Location' channel, and an 'Event' channel. The Event channel is associated with the Calendar module, and uses a Playa single relationship field to relate it to a Location.
I am adding markers to the map for every 'Location', and for each marker, I'm populating the infowindow with the Location details. this includes using the Playa:Parents method to show all of the events that are at that location.
I copied the code from the Solspace Calendar demo template for a single event to show the event date, because it had all the conditionals all worked out to deal with single day or multi-day events well.
My problem is that in the infowindow, it's only showing the 'From' date, and not the 'To' part of the date string. It shows it correctly when I output it outside of the map, though. Here is the code that is outputting the date information.
{exp:calendar:events}
<b>From:</b> {event_first_date format="%F %j, %Y at %g:%i%a"}
{if event_never_ends}
(never ends)
{if:else}
{if "{event_first_date format='%Y%m%d%g%i%a'}" != "{event_last_date format='%Y%m%d%g%i%a'}"} <b>to:</b>
{if "{event_first_date format="%Y%m%d"}" != "{event_last_date format="%Y%m%d"}"}
{event_last_date format="%l, %F %j, %Y at %g:%i%a"}
{if:else}
{event_last_date format="%g:%i%a"}
{/if}
{/if}
{/if}
<a href="{path=find-music/event/{url_title}}">{title}</a>
{/exp:calendar:events}
But this is how it outputs, in the infowindow, and outside of the map.
(crap, I don't have enough 'reputation' to post the image here, but it's here: http://paleosun.com/misc/stackexchange-map-calendar-question.jpg)
Notice, the section below the map has the "to" date. Same code is used to output it.
I have determined that something is going wrong with the quotes in the event date formatting tags. The {if "{event_first_date format='%Y%m%d%g%i%a'}" != "{event_last_date format='%Y%m%d%g%i%a'}"} part is never resolving to 'true' like it should. In fact, If I just try to output {event_first_date format='%Y%m%d%g%i%a'} in the infowindow part, nothing show up. However, if I use double quotes and output {event_first_date format="%Y%m%d%g%i%a"} it DOES work. The problem is, I cannot use that fix in the conditional, because double quotes are already being used around the output of that tag...
Any ideas why? Or what I can do as a work-around?
