combodate-rails
combodate-rails wraps the combodate.js library in a rails engine for simple use with the asset pipeline provided by rails 3.1. The gem includes the development (non-minified) source for ease of exploration. The asset pipeline will minify in production.
combodate.js is a plugin that "...converts <input> into dropdown elements to pick day, month, year, hour, minutes and seconds." Please see the documentation for details.
Usage
Add the following to your gemfile:
gem 'combodate-rails'
Add the following directive to your Javascript manifest file (application.js):
//= require combodate
If you want to include a localization file, also add the following directive:
//= require combodate/<locale>.js
