BTW, I'm quite sure that I'm not explaining very well but I've found something: In ActionView::Helpers::DateHelper there is "date_select" method, which creates html tags formatted in a way, so the day selection tag will have "name" attribute "calendar[mydate(3i)]", the month will have "calendar[mydate(2i)]" and so on. If I change these tags in my single text field tag I will have "calendar[mydate]" and nothing else, but when I send this information obviusly ruby should understand how to "split" this date to store it: where should I do this (and where could I read my submitted vars?)? In controller I only have Calendar.new(params[:calendar]) in create method, so I think that params should be "changed" in some way, is this the good way? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
