Hi there, I''m new to Rails -- started with this project just about five days ago -- I''m re-building an in-house ordering tool, and it would be handy to pre-populate a date_select field with a value two weeks from now. The calculation isn''t the hard part, it''s getting date_select to pre-populate itself. Any suggestions? Thanks, --Jim

I have the following code, but can''t seem to get the class attribute to show up in the generated select elements. I saw something about a bug/patch. However, as am still learning RoR I didn''t want to jump to conclusions. Anyone see anything wrong: <%= f.date_select :expiration_date, :order => [:month, :year], :discard_day => true, :class => "dtfld" %>

In my date_select if I choose 31 april 2008, it converts it for 1st may 2008 which it seems odd for me? I say odd because first its difficult to validate at the model level, I have to hook some code in the controller and secondly when I finally get the validation errors I have to go back at the edit page and show the selected date(and the error message) which should be 31 april 2008 but the date

Just looked at the Date helper in the rails API and noticed that none of the functions there (i.e. date_select) allow me to specify html options (i.e. class) for the generated selects.

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
