Question

I have a date_select field in my rails application as follows:

<%= f.date_select :dateinstructed %>

I would like to re-order the drop down lists show they output as:

DD/MM/YYYY

According to what I have read you can use the :order option, but I am unsure how to actually use this option:

<%= f.date_select :dateinstructed, :order = {:day, :month, :year} %>

Obviously this isn’t right, but what am I supposed to put in place of the:

:day, :month, :year

Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks,

Danny

I think it should be:

<%= f.date_select :dateinstructed, :order => [:day, :month, :year] %>

Hopefully it helps.
