Hi all, I'm trying to work out how to get started using some jQuery in my rails app.
rails -v = 3.2.2 ruby -v = 1.9.3-p194 I'm only sporadically a web-developer, and still quite inexperienced with jQuery especially, so I may be making an obvious mistake. Essentially, I've done very little after creating a new app, I've learnt that jQuery is included by default with the gem 'jquery-rails', '2.0.0'. In my application.js (app/assets/javascripts) I've added the line //= require jquery-ui I now want to have a datepicker in one of my forms, looking at the jQueryUI website (http://jqueryui.com/demos/datepicker/) I can see that the class of the text-field has to be "hasDatepicker", and the id "datepicker" I've done this in my view like this <%= f.text_field :game_start_time, :class => :hasDatepicker, :id => :datepicker %> and also to test like this <input type= "text" class="hasDatepicker" id="datepicker"> however when I click on the text-field nothing happens, no date picker appears. Is there some massively obvious step I'm missing here? I've looked in the developer tools at the 'scripts' part, and found that jQuery-ui seems to be loading with the page, I can even search and find the datepicker fucntion there. Is there some function I need to add in to say when the user clicks on this text field, - show the date picker?
