Creating events on iOS5 calendar from web app

Question

I tried a bit of research, but I don't seem to be getting anywhere. Is it possible to access the calendar on iPad/iPhone iOS5 from a web app? My goal would be adding an event to it, is that achievable? Opening a filestream is an option, in case this helps.

Thank you

Answer 1

That's not available through a web app. The only thing you can do is include a date in the text within the web app. iOS will detect it as an event (if formatted correctly) and will give the user an option to create a calendar event when clicked.

Here on this SO question, the OP mentions he had no problems in adding a calendar event on iOS by means of an iCal file created on the fly.
