Description

This property may be used in a calendar component to convey a location where a more dynamic rendition of the calendar information associated with the calendar component can be found.

If the URL property and Content-Location MIME header are both specified, they MUST point to the same resource.

Format Definition

The property is defined by the following notation:

  url        = "URL" urlparam ":" uri CRLF

  urlparam   = *(";" xparam)

Example

The following is an example of this property:
