 * Hey,
 * I have got a widget which I borrowed from the default theme and I added in the
   calendar, I have got it to go bold when thtere is a post, but that is just me
   adding css to the basic table, e.g. tbody>tr>td>a {css}
 * but I want to make the calendar look beter, like making the cells equal size 
   instead of the size size it is, mainly the size of the dates….. if you know what
   i mean?
 * I would like to know which file I can use to add id’s to the table so that when
   it is rendered I can use css better to format the calendar to look better.
 * can someone help please?

 * is there any way I can put a background colour to the table cell that has a link
   in the calendar?, one that fills the whole cell, not just the number???
 * I got the calendar resized and I got the links color changed so it is more obvious
   what has a post, but I would like to highlight this even more.

 * this probably comes too late for you to use it ikthius, but for anyone else who’s
   looking for this: below the td containing any date that has posts is given a 
   white border and background with bold black text. The border isn’t strictly necessary
   but does give a nicer shape than just the background fill on it’s own.
 * #wp-calendar a {border:#fff 2px solid;
    background:#FFF; color:#000; font-weight:
   bold; }

 * also – to reverse the inner colours you could do this:
 * #wp-calendar a:hover{color:#fff;
    background:#000; text-decoration:none;}
