I updated the code with the fix. Changed: if(!$end) { $end = $start + 24*60*60; $vevent->setProperty('dtstart', date('Ymd', $start), array('VALUE'=>'DATE')); $vevent->setProperty('dtend', date('Ymd', $end), array('VALUE'=>'DATE')); } to if(!$end) { $vevent->setProperty('dtstart', date('Ymd', $start), array('VALUE'=>'DATE')); } Thanks to Kory for pointing out an issue with this code and iCal. I updated the code with the fix.

Changed:
if(!$end)
{
$end = $start + 24*60*60;
$vevent->setProperty(’dtstart’, date(’Ymd’, $start), array(’VALUE’=>’DATE’));
$vevent->setProperty(’dtend’, date(’Ymd’, $end), array(’VALUE’=>’DATE’));
}

to

if(!$end)
{
$vevent->setProperty(’dtstart’, date(’Ymd’, $start), array(’VALUE’=>’DATE’));
}

Also, it seems that iCalcreator is very sensitive to the number of arguments, I found the following seems to work:
$end = strtotime($end);

$start = getdate($start);
// iCalcreator is sensitive to extra arguments, only pass what is required
$start = array (”year” => $start['year'], “month” => $start['mon'],
“day” => $start['mday'], “hour” => $start['hours'], “min” => $start['minutes'],
“sec” => $start['seconds']);

$end = getdate($end);
$end = array (”year” => $end['year'], “month” => $end['mon'],
“day” => $end['mday'], “hour” => $end['hours'], “min” => $end['minutes'],
“sec” => $end['seconds']);

$vevent->setProperty(’dtstart’, $start);
$vevent->setProperty(’dtend’, $end);
