how to get the value of date_select?

[11155]

Dear All,
<%= form_for(:crm_member_transactions, :url=>transaction_path
                                        (:type=>type, :load=>1)) do |f|
%>

From:<%=
date_select
:crm_member_transactions,:from,:start_year=>1980,:end_year=>1.year.from_now.year
%>

To :<%=
date_select :crm_member_transactions, :to,
,:start_year=>1980,:end_year=>1.year.from_now.year%>

Email:<%= f.text_field :email_addr%>
<%= f.submit "Filter" %>
<% end%>

i want to select the date then submit it to get the value of the seleted
date,but when i get the value with params, it returns nil,these are the
values i have submitted,
{"crm_member_transactions"=>{"{:start_year=>1980,
:end_year=>2013}(1i)"=>"2008",
"{:start_year=>1980,
:end_year=>2013}(2i)"=>"3",
"{:start_year=>1980,
:end_year=>2013}(3i)"=>"1",
"to(1i)"=>"2011",
"to(2i)"=>"12",
"to(3i)"=>"1",
"email_addr"=>""},

i can get the email value by
params[:crm_member_transactions][:email_addr],but how can i get the date
value?

Thanks

Hi!

Take a look at:

http://guides.rubyonrails.org/form_helpers.html#using-date-and-time-form-helpers

It seems that you’ve getting some problems with the “from” date_select, because you’re getting:

{"{:start_year=>1980,

:end_year=>2013}(1i)

"{:start_year=>1980,
:end_year=>2013}(2i)
"{:start_year=>1980,

:end_year=>2013}(3i)

but instead, you should get from(1i), from(2i) and from(3i).

It seems too that you have a extra comma here:

date_select :crm_member_transactions, :to,
,:start_year=>1980,:end_year=>1.year.from_now.year%>

In the end of the first line and the beginning of the second there are a comma. Maybe it’s a syntax error.

Later, you should use

params[:crm_member_transactions][:from]

and

params[:crm_member_transactions][:to]

to build the dates.

Sorry for my English mistakes. I’m not a native speaker.
