similar to: Calendar helper?

Howdy folks, As I was putting together a rough form for a rails app, I got to thinking how much smoother (in my siytuation) a little calendar widget would be than the default date picker selects. Does anyone know if such a thing exists ? I suspect it would have to be somewhat designed with rails in mind to populate the right kind of post params for convenient use at the controller end.

I am playing around with this and reference this wiki from RonR site... http://wiki.rubyonrails.org/rails/pages/CalendarHelper The error I am getting is: NameError in Placements#list undefined local variable or method `date_format'' for #<PlacementsController:0xb78f9ef4> RAILS_ROOT: script/../config/.. Application Trace | Framework Trace | Full Trace

I''m just curious about what techniques others have successfully used to capture date data on forms as an alternative to the standard date_select. I have to admit I''ve been lazy and only used the date_select as we have very few dates in our system now, but that is about to change. I would like something better. Any thoughts? -- Thanks, Sam -------------- next part

Has anyone made, or does anyone know of, a nice calendar control based on prototype/scriptaculous out there yet? Thanks in advance!

I have been trying to get one of the calender javascripts to work with the <%= form.text_field. So when the user pick the date it updates the time fields? (like in normal reservation system where you pick up the date and time from the calender and when user pick the selection it updates the field) but I could not get this to work. Does anyone have got something similar to work? or could

I''ve got a partial with a form using the dynarch calendar (calendar_field behavior). Working. Now I render this partial from the action specified in to a link_to_remote. Now when I click the calendar it''s not showed anymore. theese lines: <%= stylesheet_link_tag ''calendar-system.css'' %> <%= javascript_include_tag ''calendar'',

Hi all, I am looking for a nice way to do multiple date selection in a rails application. The app I am working on is a type of scheduling application where the users need to select the days they are available. In many cases these dates won''t follow any type of pattern as availability will be different for everyone. Ideally it would be nice to show them a calendar and allow them to

HI All, Please can anyone tell me whether there is a rails plugin/app that allows creation of a calendar that can render events. I am not talking about a calendar date picker of which there are several, but something more along the lines of http://www.backpackit.com/calendar where an html/css calendar can be rendered with dates highlighted. Many thanks Anthony

Before I starting writing a helper to display a calendar I wondered if anyone was aware of a calendar helper, basically something that is displayed inline (not a pop-up window) that can replace a date_select. The way I am thinking of doing it is to have a partial which is passed a Time class, the month is extracted from the date and a grid displayed for that month. Which should not be to

All, does any one has a date picker sample code using rails and ajax that I can use as a starting point for mine? Thanks Patrick

I have a decoupled form embedded in my pages ? a search box that has date fields ? and of course the search fields are not in my model. However, picking dates is a great use for the Dynarch calendar. It seems that by using the syntax: <%= render :partial => ?filter_box? %> In my view and... <%= dynarch_date_select ''filter_box'', ''begin_date'' %>

Is there a good date picker that can be used with prototype & scriptaculous library. I am looking for something outside ruby on rails.

I''ve recently made a first release of what I''m calling "bundled_resource" which is a plugin that makes our lives *much* easier when we need to use javascripts, stylesheets and images in conjunction with one another to deliver a special effect or tool on the client (browser) side. If you missed the release, read about it on my blog at

Hi, please have a look at http://www2.jeffcroft.com/2006/may/02/django-non-programmers/ especially the screenshot in the middle with the Calender. Instead of 3 selectfields with day, month, year I find this one much more userfriendly, also having yesterday, today and tomorrow. Are there plugins for this? I know http://www.dynarch.com/projects/calendar/ which I often included in my php-sites, and

Are there any (preferable opensource) pre made widgets like calendar widgets, treeviews, sortable grids, etc.. that I can pluginto a rails application?

I am looking for some advice on how to make a date select display only valid days of the year. The standard date helper allows for you to choose 31 days for every month of the year. Since not all months have 31 days this can lead to invalid date entries for scheduling. I am thinking that an approach where I have a drop down for month and then use AJAX or normal client side javascript to
