similar to: Problem with date_select

I am trying to write some simple code post a form, update the database and do some validation.

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 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 All, I am wondering if it is possible to have date_select fields that are indexed for updating of multiple rows. Here is my code: <% @book.awards.each do |@award| %> <tr> <td><%= select("award[]", "category", [ "Fiction", "Non-Fiction", "Poetry", "First-Boak", "Translation" ], { :include_blank

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

If I pass a date through date_select to a controller, can a Active Record object be found based on this date that is passed?

Folks, I think I should start a new thread for this, because a similar one I saw is a bit old and the resolution there doesn''t seem to apply to what I''m running into now.
