Any thoughts? -- Thanks, Sam -------------- next part

...and I didn''t touch every aspect of the engine - only the piece that I was interested in. Here it is for anyone else who wants to work with the date_box like I wanted to. If you have any questions or need clarification then let me know. Thanks, Michael Modified file: vendor/plugins/datebox_engine/app/helpers/application_helper.rb: Replace existing date_box method with the following: def date_box(object_name, method) calendar_ref = object_name + ''_'' + method <<-EOL <div id="dateBox"> <ul> <li>#{engine_image(''icon-help.gi...
