Parameters
Parameter
Description
start
Required
<span class="start">12/30/2018 03:00 PM</span>
Start date of the event. Accepts most date/time formats, e.g. 12/30/2018 03:00 PM (12-hour format) or 30-12-2018 15:00 (24-hour format).
Use numeric values to describe the date, e.g. "12/30/2018" and not textual, e.g. "December 30th, 2018".
Dates in the m/d/y or d-m-y formats are disambiguated by looking at the separator between the various components: if the separator is a slash (/), then the American m/d/y is assumed; whereas if the separator is a dash (-) or a dot (.), then the European d-m-y format is assumed. If, however, the year is given in a two digit format and the separator is a dash (-, the date string is parsed as y-m-d. To avoid potential ambiguity, it's best to use ISO 8601 (YYYY-MM-DD) dates
Date examples:
12/30/2018 03:00 PM or 30-12-2018 15:00 or 2018/12/30 03:00 PM or 2018-12-30 15:00

End date of the event. Accepts most date/time formats, e.g. 12/30/2018 05:00 PM (12-hour format) or 30-12-2018 17:00 (24-hour format).

Explanation: The timezone parameter makes sure the date/time is correct no matter if you are in New York or Sydney. If your event has users from multiple time zones in the world, it's highly recommended to use the parameter.

Using AddEvent with jQuery Mobile?
With jQuery Mobile all links are considered to be internal. If your button is a link then please add attributes to the button in order to get it to work. <a ... class="addeventatc" data-role="none" rel="external">
