I have the following use of date_select..
<%= f.date_select :birthday, :order => [:month, :day], :prompt => { :day => 'Select day', :month => 'Select month' }, :html => {:class => "select birthday"} %>
But the class does not show up in the html..
<select id="profile_birthday_2i" name="profile[birthday(2i)]">
<select id="profile_birthday_3i" name="profile[birthday(3i)]">
I also tried..
<%= f.date_select :birthday, :order => [:month, :day], :prompt => { :day => 'Select day', :month => 'Select month' }, :class => "select birthday" %>
That did not work either. Any ideas?
The HTML options are a fourth argument to the date_select method, rather than being a key in the third argument.
From the documentation:
date_select(object_name, method, options = {}, html_options = {})
So you'd want:
f.date_select :birthday, { :order => [:month, :day], :prompt => { :day => 'Select day', :month => 'Select month' } }, {:class => "select birthday"}
You need to use html_options, not html to specify the class.
I believe this will work, though I've not tested it.
<%= f.date_select :birthday, :order => [:month, :day], :prompt => { :day => 'Select day', :month => 'Select month' }, :html_options => {:class => "select birthday"} %>
See the API description here:
http://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActionView/Helpers/DateHelper.html
Note: The docs say:
If anything is passed in the html_options hash it will be applied to every select tag in the set.
So make sure you expect that class to show up on each element.

I want to add a custom css class to my date_selects in Rails 4.2.1
But the html_options tag has no effect.
code looks like this:
<%= raw t("settings.pause", :pause_starts_on => f.date_select(:pause_starts_on, :include_blank => true, :order => [:month, :day, :year], :start_year => Time.now.year, :html_options => {:class => "form-control"}).force_encoding("UTF-8"),
:pause_ends_on => f.date_select(:pause_ends_on, :include_blank => true, :order => [:month, :day, :year], :start_year => Time.now.year, :html_options => {:class => "form-control"}).force_encoding("UTF-8"))
%>
Try :html => {:class => "form-control"} without the _options
#tech_data = TagNode.first outputs below object from the controller .
p #tech_data
#<TagNode _id: 5119dcf74054448e576f3392, parent_id: nil, parent_ids: [], name: "categories", path: "categories", _type: "TagNode">
I have a form which has the fields name, _type, and category. But my object doesn't have the field category.
Here's my form
= simple_form_for #tech_data, as: :techtags, :url => view_techtags_technologies_path, :remote => true,:method => :get,:html => {:id => "upsert_techtags",:data => {:spinner => "#tech-ui"}} do |f|
%label.pull-left Type
= f.input :_type, :collection => tech_types, :label => false, :input_html => {:class =>"chzn-select", :data => {:placeholder => "Select Technology Type"}, :multiple => false}
%label.pull-left Name
= f.input :name, :type=>"text", :required => true, :label => false, :placeholder =>"Type the New Technology", :input_html => {:style => "width:265px;margin-bottom:0;"}
%label.pull-left Category
= f.input :category, :collection => [1,2,3,4], :label => false, :input_html => {:class =>"chzn-select", :disabled=>"true",:data => {:placeholder => "Type or select category"}, :multiple => false}
= f.submit "Create", :class => "btn btn-primary pull-right"
My form has an additional field that my object doesn't have. I get an error when the form is loaded, as I don't have category field in my object.
How can I select the category value in the form without adding this field to the model?
You need something like attr_accessor in Ruby,What is attr_accessor in Ruby?
Please include following in your model,which will make to get values from form to controller.
attr_accessor :category
I have two forms, one containing a dropdown where the user can choose how a list is beeing sorted, the other one containing a searchfield, where the user can search through that list. Now if a user searches for "test" and ten results show up, I want the user to be able to choose from the dropdown, how the results are beeing sorted. Accordingly if he sorts the whole list, I want himto be able to search through the list, with the results showing up in the sorted way he choose before. Due to code restrictions I have to keep those two inputs in different forms.
Here is the sort-dropdown:
= simple_form_for path, :method => "get", html: {id: "sortform"} do |f|
= f.input :sort, :collection => [t(:'videos.date'), t(:'videos.title'), t(:'videos.length')], :label => false, :required => false, :selected => params[:sort], input_html: {class: "control", :id => "sort_dropdown", :name => :sort}, :include_blank => t(:'videos.sort')
And here is the search:
= simple_form_for path, :method => 'get', :label => t(:'videos.search'), html: {id: "search-form"} do |f|
= f.input :q, { input_html: { class: 'form-control searchbar', :name => :q, id: "search", :value => params[:q]}, :placeholder => t(:'videos.search'), :required => false, :label => false}
Is it possible to keep the two inputs seperate or would it be way easier to use just one form?
You can use separate forms if you need to, just store the other parameter in a hidden field in each of the forms.
= simple_form_for path, :method => "get", html: {id: "sortform"} do |f|
= f.input :sort, :collection => [t(:'videos.date'), t(:'videos.title'), t(:'videos.length')], :label => false, :required => false, :selected => params[:sort], input_html: {class: "control", :id => "sort_dropdown", :name => :sort}, :include_blank => t(:'videos.sort')
= f.input :q, as: :hidden, input_html: { :name => :q, :value => params[:q] }
= simple_form_for path, :method => 'get', :label => t(:'videos.search'), html: {id: "search-form"} do |f|
= f.input :q, { input_html: { class: 'form-control searchbar', :name => :q, id: "search", :value => params[:q]}, :placeholder => t(:'videos.search'), :required => false, :label => false}
= f.input :sort, as: :hidden, collection: [t(:'videos.date'), t(:'videos.title'), t(:'videos.length')], :selected => params[:sort], input_html: {class: "control", :id => "sort_dropdown", :name => :sort}, :include_blank => t(:'videos.sort')
I have the following select tag
<%= f.select :id, User.find(:all, :conditions => ["manager = ?", false]).collect {|u| [u.username, u.id]}, {:required => true}, {:class => "multiselect", :multiple => true} %>
I try to add :required => true to it, the view renders but :required => true doesn't work!.
Quite a bit late, but for anyone looking, checking at the reference, should go explicitly as the hash, so ruby interpreter doesn't get confused:
select(object, method, choices = nil, options = {}, html_options = {}, &block)
For this special case:
<%= f.select :id,
User.find(:all, :conditions => ["manager = ?", false]).collect {|u| [u.username, u.id]},
{:prompt => 'Select something'},
{:required => true, :class => "multiselect", :multiple => true} %>
Try this:
<%= f.select :id, User.find(:all, :conditions => ["manager = ?", false]).collect {|u| [u.username, u.id]}, {:multiple => true}, :class => "multiselect", :required => true %>
I have the typical rails _form generated by scaffold for a member model. For the param :state I am using a select tag:
<%= f.select :state, options_for_select(us_states), { :include_blank=>true, :prompt => 'State' }, { :class => 'form-control' } %>
Using a helper method (us states):
def us_states
[
['AK', 'AK'],
['AL', 'AL'], #etc
And for the param "member_since" I am using the select_year helper:
<%= select_year(0, {:start_year => 2013, :end_year => 1920, :field_name => 'member_since', :prompt => 'Choose year', prefix: :member}, {:class => "form-control"} ) %>
Now both of these selects work to create a new record, but neither field is pre-filled in the edit record view. Any thoughts?
<%= f.select :state, us_states, { :include_blank=>true, :prompt => 'State' }, { :class => 'form-control' } %>
and
<%= select_year(f.object.member_since, {:start_year => 2013, :end_year => 1920, :field_name => 'member_since', :prompt => 'Choose year', prefix: :member}, {:class => "form-control"} ) %>
UPDATE:
Since member_since is a string, you will need to convert it to date:
<%= select_year(Date.new(f.object.member_since.to_i), {:start_year => 2013, :end_year => 1920, :field_name => 'member_since', :prompt => 'Choose year', prefix: :member}, {:class => "form-control"} ) %>
