publish Public folders to the intranet and set them to scroll through each one

I urgently require a solution to display 15 training rooms that are public folder calendars on the intranet. What I would like is for a display screen in building to scroll through each one in turn. But how do I get the information from Exchange 2003 public folders to the intranet automatically?

Something like this (save the text into a .htm file, and then open it). I have only added the URLs for 3 fictitious calendars - you will need to supply your own. The delay here is n * 5 * 1000 milliseconds = n * 5 seconds, change that to whatever you need.

<html>
<script language="JavaScript">
function doLocation(URL)
{
document.all.iframe1.src=URL;
}
function doView()
{
setTimeout("doLocation('http://servername/public/calendar1/')", 1 * 5 * 1000);
setTimeout("doLocation('http://servername/public/calendar2/')", 2 * 5 * 1000);
setTimeout("doLocation('http://servername/public/calendar3/')", 3 * 5 * 1000);
// add the rest of the calendars here.
setTimeout("doView()", 15 * 5 * 1000);
}
</script>
<body onload="doView();">
<iframe id="iframe1" name="iframe1" width="100%" height="100%"/>
<body>
</html>

Do you know whose permissions this is using to access the public folders?

LeeDerbyshire

If it didn't ask you to log on, then it will be using Integrated Authentication, which means it will be using the account of whoever logged onto the workstation running the browser. It depends what kind of authentication method is configured on your Public virtual directory, and what kinds of permissions are actually set on the folders in Outlook.
