Need Filter to calendar list i.e for calendar.aspx page

Question

For Calendar List - web part connections doesn't work and query string doesn't work. So I am out of options here.

Can any one guide me to how to filter the calendar list data in calendar.aspx.

I am open to any solution - JQuery, Visual Studio, 3rd party tools like Bamboo or any other.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

I have a built a web part which has a drop down and button, which I added in calendar.aspx of the calendar list. In the button click event I have added the following code. I am just passing the drop down selected value to the SPView CAML Query. This works fine.

Please let me know if there is a better way.

SPList oList = oSite.Lists["CustomCalendar"]; SPView oView = oList.Views["Calendar"]; oView.Query = "" +[Dropdown Selected Value]+ " "; oView.Update(); Reference: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/microsoft.sharepoint.spview.query.aspx
