I am using datetime_select to get the date and time from the user to
execute a certain program (details unrelevant). What I need to do is
to take certain parts from datetime_select and manipulate/use them.

In my view
----------------------------------------
<% form_for(@schtask) do |f| %>
<p>
        Scheduled Time<br/>
        <%=h f.datetime_select(:schtime, :prompt => {:month => 'Select
month', :day => 'Select day', :hour => 'Select hour', :minute =>
'Select minute'}, :start_year => Time.now.year, :order =>
[:month, :day, :year, :hour, :minute], :minute_step => 5)%>
  </p>
  <p>
    <%= f.submit 'Create' %>
  </p>
<% end %>


My attempt to get the :day parameter from datetime_select in the
controller
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
def schedule
  @schtask = Schtask.find(params[:id])
  @day = params['schtime(3i)']  #this results in a nil
  #...@day = @schtask.schtime.day
end

Note: schtime parameter is a datetime type in the database

I'd appreciate any help

Thanks,
Anon_comp
