It can take a couple of seconds for the calendar to be generated and shown on the page. How about a loading icon so that people know something is happening. Maybe something like the animated grey loading icon used in flash or Mac OS X?

I think a loading indicator should be avoided as much as possible, but having to wait, for more than one second for the next month to load, isn't desirable either. I'll come up with a solution anyway. I'll let you know!

All the best!

Title: Loading indicator » First display should not be loaded by AJAX

The delay of the first calendar display is caused by the delay caused by requesting the markup using AJAX. The first display should not be be loaded by AJAX to avoid this delay.

+1 on first load being non-ajax. A loading indicator may be appropriate for subsequent calls.
