Simple CSS code to hide Time on the top of each entry in Calendar View.

Hi,

In the Calendar View, by default the time will showed on top of each entry.

If you are entering time at the time of new item creation thats fine. But if you are using only Date field then it shows you as 12:00 AM for each entry. In order to hide that in Month and Week view:

1) Site Actions -> Edit Page-> Add WebPart -> Content Editor WebPart.
2) Modify Shared WebPart -> Source Editor.
3) Paste this code


"style

td.ms-cal-monthitem A NOBR {display:none;}

a.ms-cal-dayitem NOBR {display:none;}

/style"
NOTE: style are HTML tags.
.

Done.
