in my booking / _form I have the following input fields : (startdate and
endate)
Booking Start Date
<%= text_field_tag('startdate', @startdate, {:class => @startdateclass, :readonly => "readonly", :maxlength => "25"} ) %> <%= observe_field("startdate", :frequency => 0.5, :url => {:controller => 'booking' , :action => 'startdateChanged' }, :update => 'enddate', :with => "'input='+$('startdate').value ") %>
<%= text_field_tag('startdate', @startdate, {:class => @startdateclass, :readonly => "readonly", :maxlength => "25"} ) %> <%= observe_field("startdate", :frequency => 0.5, :url => {:controller => 'booking' , :action => 'startdateChanged' }, :update => 'enddate', :with => "'input='+$('startdate').value ") %>
Booking End Date
<%= text_field_tag('enddate', @enddate, {:class => @enddateclass, :readonly => "readonly", :maxlength => "25"} ) %>
----------
the observe_field detects a new startdate selection from the calendar
handled by startdateChanged action (calculating an endingdate 10 days
after) in the booking_controller
def startdateChanged
pd = ParseDate::parsedate(@params["input"])
tl = Time.local(pd[0], pd[1], pd[2])
@enddate = (tl+(84600*10)).strftime("%d/%m/%Y")
render :update do | page |
page['enddate'].value = @enddate
@enddateclass = "format-d-m-y range-low-" +
(tl+(84600*10)).strftime("%d-%m-%Y")
end
end
<%= text_field_tag('enddate', @enddate, {:class => @enddateclass, :readonly => "readonly", :maxlength => "25"} ) %>
the endingdate value is correctly set and displayed but the :class =>
@enddateclass is not modified…
why ?
