I have a form that submits dates like so in the params hash:
{
"dob(1i)" => "01",
"dob(2i)" => "02",
"dob(3i)" => "2011"
}
and I started getting
1 error(s) on assignment of multiparameter attributes rails.
What I did to fix this, was in the controller action, I took the params object:
dobs = params.delete("dob").split(/[\D]/)
params["dob"] = Time.new(dobs[2], dobs.first, dobs[1])
When update is called on these params, it will work just fine. It's a hacky work around, but a work around it is. It splits the date on a non-numeric delimiter(/, -, what have you) and then makes a new Time object.
You're welcome.
