Date_select

Rails
1

Hi all
I am using rails 2.3.5. But I am facing the problem with date_select
tag. I have written code as follow.

= date_select :post, :birthdate, :start_year => 1950, :end_year =>
Date.today.year, :prompt => { :day => ‘Select day’, :month => ‘Select
month’, :year => ‘Select year’ }

But I got error like “wrong number of arguments (2 for 1)”. If I write
only
= date_select :post, :birthdate
than also I got the same error.

I have tried like
date_select :post
than it gives me error like “wrong number of arguments (1 for 2)”.

Help me out…

date_select(object_name, method, options = {}, html_options = {})

I don’t think you are going to have any success without the parens

Without knowing more about your app and your models, I would ask what
the :post refers to in your date_select.

If I understand you correctly, you want to render a date select field
for the ‘birthdate’ attribute. What model does this attribute belong
to? Are you using the date_select as part of a form? If so could you
post that entire form?

Without further info, I’d say get rid of the ‘:post’ in the
date_select. And go from there.

Thanks for your reply…

:post is my object and the :birthdate is my field in table. With the
help of :post I am able to generate field name like post[birthdate]. I
cant remove that because I am using multi model in a single form.
