Rails - May 2008 - Getting the datetime when using Calendar Date Select plugin in an Ajax update operation.

Hey,everyone,

I encountered a problem when getting a date through calendar date
select plugin. It''s convenient to put the very
tag(calendar_date_select_tag) in a form, then get the date when the
form is submitted, however, if I don''t put the
calendar_date_select_tag in a form, and just use it as an element
which can show a calendar on the page, now I wanna update a specific
area on the page when my mouse goes over the date on the calendar. so
far, the trouble is I can not fetch the datetime in an onchange event?
My code is as below:

<div id="calendar">
 <%= calendar_date_select_tag :e_date,
                              nil,
                              :embedded => true,
                              :year_range => 100,
                              :month_year => "label",
                             :onchange =>
remote_function(:update=>"events",
                                                          
:url=>study_plan_users_calendars_path)
%>
</div>
<div id="events">Here comes the message which is updated
according to
the date<div>

How can I get the datetime which is used as some condition when
updating the specific area?
Or any other idea on solving this updating issue?
