Hi,  
I tried to create 2 date fields with date\_select in ruby. But the  
names assigned to the two date fields are the same(date[year],  
date[month] and date[day] for both) when I view the page source.  
Is there any way to assign a different name to the second date\_select  
field? Or in what else way can we use two date fields in a form?

Please help.  
Thanks
