similar to: Small Date Formatting Question regarding datetime_select()

by default datetime_select allows the user to input any date and time they want. Is there a way it can only allow a user to select an hour between 8AM and 6PM and only allow them to choose the top of the hour (:00) and the half hour (:30) for the minute? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on

Hi everyone, Is there a time select helper which uses a 12 hour clock rather than a 24 hour one? Also, does anyone know if :discard_year actually works in datetime_select now, or how I could find this out? Thanks! Daniel

Hi, I''m trying to submit data from text boxes on a form to one variable in my controller, in the same way that datetime_select has date(1i), date(2i), etc for day, month, year, etc... I''ve named my variables event[start_date(1i)] event[start_date(2i)] and event[start_date(3i)] but this doesn''t seem to work and event[:start_date] is blank ... any pointers would be

I have a customer that has a request that the select_datetime fields have AM/PM selectors instead of 24 hour time. The rails time and datetime selects seem to only support 24 hour time. I can''t seem to find any information on this. i was wondering if there is already a solution out there, or will i have to roll my own? Sean Wolfe master nerd of i heart squares, inc. 3711 N.

How do I get a value from datetime_select? Do I need to get each value from it''s dropdown element individually or is there a way to get the date by referencing one object? Anyone have any good examples? -Andy

Hi I have 2 question for you guys, 1. Which is the difference between this two methods? (select_datetime, datetime_select) 2. How I assign the selected date-time values, to an specific variable or array using select_datetime I know do it using datetime_select(''object'',''method'') I aprecciate your attention. Thanks PD: Sorry about my english.

the date_select form helper has a neat little feature which lets you specify the order of the month/day/year that is displayed on the form via the :order parameter. i.e. <%= date_select ''blah'', ''somedate'', :order=>[ :month, :day, :year ] %> however, i don''t see a similar option for datetime_select. passing an :order parameter is happily

Hi All In my project I am to take date of birth from user so I used datetime_select. It renders three selection boxes, year, month and day. But I want order as day, month and year. I added :order option for datetime_select, it renders normal selection boxes with order year, month and day. Why :order does not work with datetime_select? see my following code <%= datetime_select(:user2,

Hi, I have a datetime select in my form like this: DATE/TIME REPORTED: <%= datetime_select ''report'', ''rep_date'' %> This works beautifully for creating a new record. The data is saved as: 2006-08-07 11:33:00 Now, the problem is when I try to load the form with saved values to do an update. The above code works and loads the saved data in another one

ok so datetime_select if you use the discard options say { :discard_month => true } when you just do update_attributes on said object year would be correct month would be the hour date would be the minute so if you select year: 2005 hour: 12 minute: 13 the time object would go into the db as: ''2005-12-13 00:00:00'' so my question is how do i get the time object properly

If I have a form similar to the one below, and ''start'' is a "string" field in my Database. Is there a way to take all of the date/time params and put them into ''start'' without too much hacking? I would like this to be as clean as possible. <p><label for="start_time">Start Time</label><br/> <%=

-------------------------- Question 1 -------------------------- I am dealing with a database that holds products and it has a datetime field called "active_at". so I have the following for active_at: <%= f.datetime_select :active_at %> It gives me 5 different params: params[:product][:active_at(1i)] params[:product][:active_at(2i)] params[:product][:active_at(3i)]

In my view code, I have <%= datetime_select "in_out", "time_in" %> which returns in params :in_out: !map:HashWithIndifferentAccess time_in(1i): "2006" time_in(2i): "6" time_in(3i): "12" time_in(4i): "20" time_in(5i): "24" and I want to save that datetime to a column in the db... if

Hello It seems that datetime_select, is creating an instance of the Time class. Why would that be? I found this while building a site where people can create vigils (prayer vigils, peace vigils, etc). When I added a validation method that compared start_date to created_at, it generated the error: ArgumentError (comparison of Time with DateTime failed): I was able to put a breakpoint in the

Hello All, I''ve been playing with Rails - did the recipe/category sample from onLamp.com - fairly straight forward - even got it working against postgres. Anyway, I''ve been appling rails to a small test project and I can''t seem to get the syntax down or find a sample of how to use the date control on a custom new/edit view. The CRUD (is that right?) that automatically

Hi, Does anyone know of a method to validate a DateTime field? I''ve looked at the validation docs and the validates_date / validates_time plug-in but I can''t find a method to validate a value in the format of yyyymmddhhmm. It seems like something that should exist already, so I''d just like to check before I attempt my own version... Cheers, Mark

Greetings! I'm sure the solution is simple, but describing the problem is long. Here goes. I have a samba server on my network of mostly windows machines, and all works fine. The windows machines can read and write and create files and directories just fine. I have a Linux machine on the network and although it can mount and read the files on the Samba server, I can not write to it. When
