I've written about my web calendar solution. Over time I've noticed that my web calendar malfunctions and doesn't always hide/display my calendars when I check and uncheck the box.

I spent a bunch of time debugging this, and learned that it might be a commit where I forcefully set a variable at login time in commit d9ddf89b32a1514248f0943e72f704a8bcb523e4 to file webdav_protocol.js.

I think even if a calendar is off, but I set that value to true, it misleads the variable globalVisibleCalDAVCollections. I found that using the java console to reset that value makes this work better.

globalVisibleCalDAVCollections=[]

So I haven't made any changes to the code, at this time. By just resetting that array with 5,445 entries (of the 11 calendars I have in production), my web calendar started behaving better.
