hi,

would it be possible to to extract the calendar into an widget? then you could have it on any pages, and when the user clicks on a date, he would be redirected to the calendar page... ???

It already is.

function GlobalCalendarWidget()
{
$calendarPage = DataObject::get_one("Calendar"); // If you have multiple calendars, specify an id or url segment.
return new CalendarWidget($calendarPage);
}

If you want it on every page, the Page_Controller would probably be a good place since all your page types descend from that. It can be called on the template just like any other function.
