Folks, When I use observe_field, I get a javascript error "Form is not defined". Any thoughts? __View: search.rhtml__ <label for="search">Search:</label> <%= text_field_tag :search %> <%= observe_field(:search, :frequency => 0.25, :update => :search_hits, :url => { :action =>

I need to be able to assign a value to the field_id field of observe_field inside a partial. Ideally, it would look something like: <%= observe_field(local_variable_name1, :url => {:action => ''some_constant'', :id => local_variable_name2}) %> I''m not having a problem with the assignment to :id of local_variable_name2. But I can not figure out how to use

Hi All In my project I am to take date of birth from user so I used datetime_select. It renders three selection boxes, year, month and day. But I want order as day, month and year. I added :order option for datetime_select, it renders normal selection boxes with order year, month and day.

Hello, apologies if this has a trivial solution but after rumaging around google for a while I haven''t found one. I am trying to set the style of the datetime_select compound widget but it appears to ignore all my efforts ... the API specifies datetime_select(object, method, options = {}) so you would expect <%= datetime_select ''log'',

Hi, I have a datetime select in my form like this: DATE/TIME REPORTED: <%= datetime_select ''report'', ''rep_date'' %> This works beautifully for creating a new record.

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.

Greetings! What is up with the syntax of this thing? I mean, if the only thing I can send back using :with is the field being observed, then why in the world is the syntax so convoluted?

No luck. Am I missing something? Thanks, : ) Jason -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I found this while building a site where people can create vigils (prayer vigils, peace vigils, etc). When I added a validation method that compared start_date to created_at, it generated the error: ArgumentError (comparison of Time with DateTime failed): I was able to put a breakpoint in the

Hi I''ve just started experimenting with AJAX in Rails and have come across this issue. I''m trying to set up some ajax form validation on a login form.
