[EventCalendar] Difficulty with the EC3 install

[J.M. Foster]

Hello -

Thanks Darrell for the help.
I have made a little progress after installing the EXEC-PHP plugin.
However, although I do get the calendar, I only get an error after it.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Warning: Missing argument 1 for ec3_get_events() in 
/homepages/43/d113456586/htdocs/hosted-domains/spice/blog/htdocs/wp-content/plugins/eventcalendar3.php 
on line 719

WordPress database error: [You have an error in your SQL syntax. 
Check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for 
the right syntax to use near '' at line 13]
SELECT
p.id AS id,
post_title,
post_date,
u.user_nicename AS author
FROM wp_posts p, wp_post2cat p2c, wp_users u
WHERE post_status = 'publish'
AND post_date_gmt > '2006-12-28 00:00:00'
AND p.id = post_id
AND p.post_author = u.id
AND category_id = 3
ORDER BY post_date
LIMIT
    * No events.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The line in question I believe is # 719 [$limit, in the
eventcalendar3.php file.

function ec3_get_events(
   $limit,
   $template_event='<a href="%LINK%">%TITLE% (%TIME%)</a>',
   $template_day='%DATE%:',
   $date_format='j F',
   $template_month='',
   $month_format='F Y')

I am afraid this is a little over my head.
Is there some further direction you could offer me.
I will continue to read the other resource links suggested by you
and Rusty.

Thank you !
