I did something like on the application I am working on. Basically, we have consultants who are assigned to assignments and have a status for every assignment.Each assignment has a start and end date and there is a different colour scheme for every assignment.
I have a pl/sql region having source like this :-
declare
cursor c_get_consultant_dates IS
select case
when ph.holiday_date = to_date(z.my_dt,'ddmmyyyy') then
     'PUBLIC_HOLIDAY'
     else
cs.consultant_status
end consultant_status,
z.my_dt
from
select my_dt
from
select to_char(r) ||
substr(:p1_calendar_date,5,2) ||
substr (:p1_calendar_date,1,4) my_dt
from ( select
case
when rownum < 10 then '0'|| to_char(rownum)
     else
to_char(rownum)
end r
from all_objects
where rownum <=
(select to_char(last_day(to_date
(:p1_calendar_date,'yyyymmdd')),'dd') from dual)
where to_char(to_date(my_dt,'ddmmyyyy'),'fmDAY') not in
('SATURDAY','SUNDAY')
and to_date(my_dt,'ddmmyyyy') not in
( select holiday_date
from public_holidays
where to_char(holiday_date,'yyyymm') =
substr(:p1_calendar_date,1,6)
order by 1
)z,
consultant_assignment ca,
consultant_status cs,
public_holidays ph
where ca.con_status_seq_num = cs.con_status_seq_num
and ca.consultant_seq_num = :p1_consultant
and to_date(z.my_dt,'ddmmyyyy') between ca.start_dt and
ca.end_dt
and to_date(z.my_dt,'ddmmyyyy') = ph.holiday_date(+)
UNION
select 'PUBLIC_HOLIDAY' consultant_status,
to_char(holiday_date,'ddmmyyyy') my_dt
     from public_holidays          
     where to_char(to_date(:p1_calendar_date,'yyyymmdd'),'MON-YYYY') =to_char(holiday_date,'MON-YYYY');
begin
htp.p('<script>');
-- This is a simple function to grab elements in the page
-- Same function from above
htp.p(' function html_GetElement(pNd){
switch(typeof (pNd)){
case "string":node = document.getElementById(pNd); break;
case "object":node = pNd; break;
default:node = null; break;
return node;
Fill the appropriate colour for all consultant statuses plus public holidays
for x in c_get_consultant_dates
loop
if
--x.consultant_status = 'AVAILABLE' then
--htp.p(' html_GetElement("'||x.my_dt||'").style.backgroundColor="green";');
--elsif
x.consultant_status = 'BOOKED' then
htp.p(' html_GetElement("'||x.my_dt||'").style.backgroundColor="red";');
elsif
x.consultant_status = 'PENDING' then
htp.p(' html_GetElement("'||x.my_dt||'").style.backgroundColor="yellow";');
elsif
x.consultant_status = 'TRAINING' then
htp.p(' html_GetElement("'||x.my_dt||'").style.backgroundColor="pink";');
elsif
x.consultant_status = 'PUBLIC_HOLIDAY' then
htp.p(' html_GetElement("'||x.my_dt||'").style.backgroundColor="D61300";');
elsif
x.consultant_status like 'HOLIDAY%' then
htp.p(' html_GetElement("'||x.my_dt||'").style.backgroundColor="D61300";');
end if;
end loop;
htp.p('</script>');
end;
hope this helps
