similar to: Search screens with dates

I would like to have a date control on a page and I would like a behavior similar to what you get using date_select with the :include_blank => true option where the first value in the dropdown is "- Month -", "- Day -", or "- Year -" rather than a blank value for the respective month, day, and year select fields. I took a look at the ruby source for

hello, i would like to display a collection of records on one page (e.g. an author record with all his/her books). a record contains a text_area (e.g. a description of the book) and a date_select (e.g. when the book was published). <% for @book in @author.books %> <%= text_area ''book[]'', ''note'' %> <%= datetime_select

Hi all I have a model "party" that has a time field "starts_at". I have created a form to add new instances of this model. <%= select_date Date.today, :prefix => ''party'' %> Sadly I get the error: NoMethodError in Parties#add undefined method `month='' for #<Party:0x256a600> How can I fix this problem? I remember that I saw in

I have a date where the year range is more then I want to define in a select_date scaffold generated year range. My idea was to have the year entered as a text field and the month and day using something like: <%= select_month @person.born,:prefix => :person ,:field_name => "born(2i)" %> <%= select_day @person.born,:prefix => :person , :field_name =>

I''m trying to rewrite a fusebox-like application (Active4D plugin to 4D database) in RoR/postgres and I''m doing okay - but keep running into things that stump me. It seems like it takes me hours to figure out something that I could have written in pure code in minutes. The select_month and select_day helper has been my latest waste of time. All I''m trying to do is add

I want to specify a different default time to datetime_select tag how can i do that. also i was looking at rails helper code ----------------------------------------------------------------------- module ActionView module Helpers module DateHelper def to_datetime_select_tag(options = {}) defaults = { :discard_type => true } options = defaults.merge(options)

I see that if I use the date_select helper in my view, then in the generated page, my selects are named obj[datetime_field(1i)] (and 2i and 3i for the other parts). These auto-populate the date portion of my datetime_field. I have another datetime field that I''m presenting the time from and I would like to use a similar scheme to autopopulate it. Currently, I''ve used the

I searched for forum for something about this but couldn''t find anything. For example I have this in my view: (you enter start/end dates from dropdowns, pick a category and a report is generated.) <%= start_form_tag :action => ''display_report'' %> From: <%= date_select ''report'', ''date1'' %> <br /> To: <%=

I have an ActiveRecord model (called Festival) that contains an array of "FestDate" objects serialized into a sql text column of the Festival object. (like the Agile book first edition describes on p. 205) The FestDate objects themselvs are not ActiveRecord objects. (of course, otherwise they would be in their own table...) When working with a Festival, I would like to use various

In my form I have these items: <%= select_year Date.today, :start_year => Schoolyear.get_startdate.year, :end_year => Schoolyear.get_enddate.year %> <%= select_month Date.today.month %> No matter what I do, in my controller I can''t seem to access the selected year and month. I have tried params[:month].to_s and also

I''m having trouble workign out which ActionView DateHelpers to display a time input for an ActiveRecord field of type :time. I just want an hours input and a minuites input. I can get these with time_select helper using :field_name and :prefix but it gives both hours and miniutes the same name. <%= select_time(Time.now, :prefix => "search", :field_name =>

Greetings. I have a route something like this: map.calendar ''/tasks/:year/:month'', :controller => ''tasks'', :action => ''calendar'', :year => /\d{4}/, :month => /\d{2}/ (Ignore the obvious problems of invalid data.) I''m trying to create a form that will allow my users to navigate from one month/year to the next.

hi group, I am making a little rails app to experiment with rails. It consists of one model, item, that represents an item on a todo list. A todo item has a description, a state (finished or not) and a due date. After changing the scaffold screens a bit, I wanted to be able to have no due date. I tried to do this by making a radio button; if ''no date'' is selected, the date

Is there anything in the mix to add :class, :id etc html_options to the select_hour and select_minute methods? I found this post, http://groups.google.com/group/rubyonrails-talk/msg/fcc4907eee2bfd33?dmode=source, dated late January that touches on the subject. I''m curious if this is an issue in the current rails development. Anyone have any info?

All, I''ve downloaded and installed a plugin into my vendor directory. How do I then take advantage of it? It has an init.rb file which has the appropriate require. What do I need to do to make sure that the plugin code gets loaded? Thanks, Wes -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
