    Further problems with web booking: Availability calendar

    Description:
    I was preparing a training session on web booking today and wanted to show patrons how the availability calendar displays when something is booked. I chose an item (barcode 32146004147438) that I knew was booked from 8/31/2006 - 12/15/2006. I identified the item in the catalog, click on the "booking" link and got to the "Booking information page". Without entering information about dates, I went directly to the availability calendar and click on the right-hand arrow so that the week would change to 8/28/2006 to 9/04/2006.

    That availability calendar had the appropriates dates blacked out. I clicked to the next week's calendar (9/4 to 9/11) and there are no dates blacked out. As this video is booked until 12/15/2006, why are the subsequent weeks not showing as blacked out? When you enter dates that fall between 8/31 and 12/16, it won't let you book, but I think the dates should all show as blacked out.

    Resolution:
    [From site:] The service pack applied last week [2009-03-16] fixed this problem, so this can be closed.
