Calendar date picker plugin

Rails
1

Hi I’m new to rails and trying to find a calendar picker plugin. I’ve
come across ‘calendardateselect’, but I can’t seem to figure out step 4
=P

The other one I tired is ‘activecalendar’ (does anyone know if this
project is maintained?) I tried using this one and I am getting the
following errors:

ArgumentError in Members#new

Showing app/views/members/new.html.erb where line #48 raised:

wrong number of arguments (4 for 3)

Extracted source (around line #48):

45:


46:


47: <%= f.label :bday %>

48: <%= f.date_select :bday %>
49:


50:


51: <%= f.label :last_visit_date %>

Is there something better out there, easier to use with no fuzz and
actually has some documentation?

calendar_date_select is the easiest. Step 4 is just:
<%= calendar_date_select_includes “red” %> or whatever color you
want.

unfortunately I don’t understand easy =P

  1. I included the following into my new.html.erb scaffold test code at
    the top

<%= javascript_include_tag :defaults %>
<%= calendar_date_select_includes %>

  1. Next I added to the of my layout html.erb file

<%= calendar_date_select_includes “red” %>

  1. Finally next to the date field in the form_for I have something like
    this:

    <%= f.label :bday %> <%= calendar_date_select_tag "e_date" %>
    <%= f.date_select :bday %>

Now when I stop/stop Webrick and refresh my page I get the following
error dialog box

“CalendarDateSelect Error: prototype could not be found…”

What prototype as I missing and where should it be added?

OK never mind, it mysteriously started to work now? I’ll play around
with it a bit more.

Probably the prototype.js library itself. It’s included with Rails,
but you have to make sure the generated page brings it in with an
appropriate tag.
