<label for="event_start_date">Start date:</label> <%= date_select ''event'', ''start_date'' %> This results in following html: <select name="event[start_date(1i)]"> <option value="2000">2000</option> ..... <option value="2010">2010</option> </select> <select name="event[start_date(2i)]"> <option value="1">January</option> .... <option value="12">December</option> </select> .... I tried the following code (and some combinations) to get the year part of the date. start_day = params[:event][:start_date] But it doesn''t work. How do I get the individual values from the web? Thanks. -=- Neeraj _______________________________________________ Rails mailing list Rails-1W37MKcQCpIf0INCOvqR/iCwEArCW2h5@public.gmane.org http://lists.rubyonrails.org/mailman/listinfo/rails

Re: How to retrieve the individual value for a date field
Neeraj: @day = params[:event][''start_date(3i)''] @month = params[:event][''start_date(2i)''] @year = params[:event][''state_date(1i)''] This should work fine for getting the raw HTML. Of course, you can also get it from the model of whatever it is... say the information is going into the @events object, and start_date is the variable: @event.start_date.mday, @event.start_date.month, @event.start_date.year Hope this helps.
