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 =>

I am a little confused about the best way to work with date_select. I see that in my views it generates a simple input form that allows for the entry of year, month and date information. If I just leave it at that, great! But what if now in the controller, I want to work with the date information. I actually want to take the user input date and compute a new date some number of days in the

Hi, I render a couple of date_select fields, the HTML looks fine, I can see the values submitted back to the server, but AR doesn''t pick them up from the hash in Booking.new(params[''booking'']). I''ve got a ''booking'' object with parameters product, startdate and enddate. HTML snippets: <select

Dates defined chosen with date_select are not coming through once the form is submitted. I have this in a form: <%= date_select ''search'', ''date_start'', :include_blank => true %> <%= date_select ''search'', ''date_end'' , :include_blank => true %> However, when I submit the form params[:search][:date_start]

Hi, I could not find an easy way to specify the ''id'' attribute for select inputs of ''date_select'' form helper. I need to set it because I want to retrieve date selects values from a javascript. <%= date_select ''product'', ''expiration'' %> generates <select name="product[expiration(1i)]">

Hi, I''m trying to submit data from text boxes on a form to one variable in my controller, in the same way that datetime_select has date(1i), date(2i), etc for day, month, year, etc... I''ve named my variables event[start_date(1i)] event[start_date(2i)] and event[start_date(3i)] but this doesn''t seem to work and event[:start_date] is blank ... any pointers would be

I am "script\generate scaffold"ing w/ Oracle. The CRUD controls for DATE columns in _form.rhtml are generated as datetime_select, rather than date_select . This is understandable, as Oracle uses a DATETIME data type for DATE columns. I''m also not too bothered by the fact that I have to manually replace "datetime_select" w/ "date_select" for all

Hi, I''ve put together a simple form that contains among other things a date_select: <%= date_select(:user, :dob, :order => [:day, :month, :year], :start_year => 1900, :end_year => Date.today.year) %> In my controller I have some code to create a user entity from the parameters posted up from the form, like so: parameters:

Can you see an obvious reason why this date_select code is failing? The parameters from the form - *Parameters*: {"commit"=>"Save All Changes", "campaign_id"=>"1", "campaign"=>{"name"=>"fdsfas", "end_date(3i)"=>"26", "start_date(1i)"=>"2006",

-------------------------- Question 1 -------------------------- I am dealing with a database that holds products and it has a datetime field called "active_at". so I have the following for active_at: <%= f.datetime_select :active_at %> It gives me 5 different params: params[:product][:active_at(1i)] params[:product][:active_at(2i)] params[:product][:active_at(3i)]

In my view code, I have <%= datetime_select "in_out", "time_in" %> which returns in params :in_out: !map:HashWithIndifferentAccess time_in(1i): "2006" time_in(2i): "6" time_in(3i): "12" time_in(4i): "20" time_in(5i): "24" and I want to save that datetime to a column in the db... if

I am using the date_select helper to generate date select elements in a form. I notice that the generated HTML shows that these selects have the following names: Month: current_job[StartDate(2i)] Day: current_job[StartDate(3i)] Year: current_job[StartDate(1i)] I''m assuming that the Xi identifiers somehow specify the appropriate date part from a date or time value. Can anyone

the date_select form helper has a neat little feature which lets you specify the order of the month/day/year that is displayed on the form via the :order parameter. i.e. <%= date_select ''blah'', ''somedate'', :order=>[ :month, :day, :year ] %> however, i don''t see a similar option for datetime_select. passing an :order parameter is happily

I want to allow users to enter a day and a month, but not necessarily a year. i.e. it should be optional. If I select the day and month, but a blank year and then submit i get: 1 error(s) on assignment of multiparameter attributes The paramaters regarding the date look like this: {"date_of_birth(2i)"=>"3",

Is there a way to make datetime_select() dropdowns work on a 12hr clock? I need to make a input field that works exactly like the reminders datetime selecton dropdowns in Backpack to populate a datetime field in my DB. i.e in the format: month, day, year ? hour (1-12) minute am/pm. Should I change my database to have a separate column for date and one for time and use date_select()? Can

Hi, I am upgrading a Rails application from Rails 3.1.11 to 3.2.12, but have a problem with ` accepts_nested_attributes_for` in conjunction with multipart attributes. The app is used to manage oral exams, so there is a model `Exam`, which has many `Examdate`s. When creating an exam, I can also create the examdates, consisting of a date, a start time and an end time. While the date field is
