AS3: Creating a Google Calendar RF3339 Timestamp

/ Published in: ActionScript 3
Save to your folder(s)
If you ever need to build a Flash mash-up on top of Google Calendar, you may need sync things through a timestamp. This example basically makes a request to my public Google calendar profile and says, "Give me any data based on what is happening right now". So the URL Request looks like this "http://www.google.com/calendar/feeds/MyCalendarFeed/public/basic?start-min=" + RF3339.timestamp();
