Using Date and Time Form Helpers -The date and time helpers differ from all the other form helpers in two important respects: +You can choose not to use the form helpers generating HTML5 date input fields and use the alternative date and time helpers. These date and time helpers differ from all the other form helpers in two important respects: # Dates and times are not representable by a single input element. Instead you have several, one for each component (year, month, day etc.) and so there is no single value in your +params+ hash with your date or time. # Other helpers use the +_tag+ suffix to indicate whether a helper is a barebones helper or one that operates on model objects. With dates and times, +select_date+, +select_time+ and +select_datetime+ are the barebones helpers, +date_select+, +time_select+ and +datetime_select+ are the equivalent model object helpers. |
