similar to: Date calender instead of selectboxes like in Django

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

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 trying to populate a multiple select box using javascript, but am having problems with the name. When I change the name to "codes[]" I can''t get the javascript to find the form element, but without the [] on the end, rails wont read all of the selected values. Here is an example of the javascript working, but when you submit the array is not passed across for the codes.

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

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

Hey was wondering how to setup a select box that when I call Model.new(params[:model]) it will automatically putit into the db... I tried <select name="home_bedrooms" id="home_bedrooms"> <option value="0">0</option> ... </select> then when I do @home = Home.new(params[:home]) that field doesnt insert into the db.. any ideas? -Ray

Original announcement at http://blog.inquirylabs.com/ [1] == What is bundled_resource? == If your development is in any way similar to mine, there are a number of useful resources out there that make web applications shine beautifully. For example, there?s the Dynarch calendar and the textarea tools. There are a number of others?too many, in fact. The problem is that as a web developer,

Does anyone know if someone has created a popup calendar helper for selecting dates? The current way in rails with the multiple selects is cumbersome at best, and I didn''t see any calendar type helpers in there.

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'',

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

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'' %>

Hello all, Not a directly related question to scriptaculous or prototype, but I am looking for a good, dynamic vertical javascript menu. I''ve done some searching and there are a lot of menu implementations out there. I''m looking for something more or less free, but will pay/donate a small fee towards something worth while. I figured I''d ask here to help filter down

Is there a easy way to add components like: http://www.dynarch.com/projects/calendar/ http://tinymce.moxiecode.com/example_full.php?example=true in ruby forms, by plugins or whatever?

My mainquestion is: how can i parse a selectbox (if possible with rjs) an get the value in ruby (not just in

For my application I''m going to be in need of a 1-small calendar (pop up kind) where a user would click on a month/date and it would be sent back to the form action. 2-also some kind of textarea / htmlarea plugin I''ve perused around the plugin directory and possible found a calendar. I think dynarch is the name and included in a suite. As for the htmlarea I think there was a

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

My customer has dropdowns like this: Year Month Day If you submit with month selected and year blank, it subs in a year arbitrarily. Worse still, it subs in the year 5. I have no idea why. It seems a pernicious default. Anyway, they''re developing an app, they''re a designer turned coder, turning to a real programmer (me, allegedly) to make sense of the madness they''ve
