Language parameters gem calendar_date_select

Rails

Hi Ruby Community!

I use the gem CalendarDateSelect with RoR 2.2.2.

Everything works fine when I use the default date-format.

In environment.rb I made the gem-dependency-entry:

  config.gem "calendar_date_select"

But do somebody knows where I have to set the entry for the other date
formats like :finnish, :iso_date etc.?

I searched inside the internet and tried a lot of possibilities (like
config.gem “calendar_date_select”, :finnish), but nothing works:-(

Thanks ahead for every possible solution!

Thank you very much Chris,

it works fine.

But my next Problem ist, how to save the date format.

For example: 03.12.2012 will be saved as 2012-03-12, 31.3.2009 will not
saved because there is no month with numer 31 → the problem is by that
rails mistakes betwenn month and day.

Do you know a solution?

Thanks ahead!

Now I remember I had the same problem when trying to use British-
format dates (dd/mm/yyyy). Try this as a starting point:
http://groups.google.com/group/calendar_date_select/browse_thread/thread/86d0451c515c2074/9f93a4a5976119fa
That discussion is getting old now, so it might be worth looking
through the calendar_date_select group to see if there have been
changes to Rails and/or the plugin that you need to know about. It’s
still working for me with Rails 2.2, though.
