Initialization

One Textarea control is added to the lightbox by default. To add another one, follow these steps:

1. Add the section to the lightbox configuration:

   scheduler.config.lightbox.sections = [
       { name:"text", ... },
       { name:"location", height:50, map_to:"location", type:"textarea"},
       { name:"time", ...}
   ];

2. Set the label for the section:

   scheduler.locale.labels.section_location = "Location";
