I need to ad events that are on a XML file, coming from an external application, and I cannot use PHP, not supported for my server.
I am able to make a string from this xml, but when I try to put this string variable on the events:, it does not work.

Is there a way to make events to read a string?

var xml = "[{id:444,title:'Event4',start:'2011-11-21 14:00',end:'2011-11-21 16:00',backgroundColor:'orange',borderColor:'orange',allDay: false},{id:222,title:'Event2',start:'2011-11-22 14:00',end:'2011-11-22 16:00',backgroundColor:'orange',borderColor:'orange',allDay: false},{id:333,title:'Event3',start:'2011-11-23 14:00',end:'2011-11-23 16:00',backgroundColor:'orange',borderColor:'orange',allDay: false}]";

$('#calendar').fullCalendar({
			header: {
				left: 'prev,next today',
				center: 'title',
				right: 'month,agendaWeek,agendaDay'
			},
			editable: false,
			events: xml



Thanks,

`events` needs to accept a real JS array. so you need to parse your json before passing it in.
