select_date

v1.2.6 - Show latest stable - Class: ActionView::Helpers::DateHelper

select_date(date = Date.today, options = {})

public

Returns a set of html select-tags (one for year, month, and day) pre-selected with the date. It’s possible to explicitly set the order of the tags using the :order option with an array of symbols :year, :month and :day in the desired order. If you do not supply a Symbol, it will be appened onto the :order passed in.

        options[:order].each do |o|
          select_date << self.send("select_#{o}", date, options)

If you wanna show "year" and "month" only, you can use "order" to do it:

select_date(Date.current, order: [:year, :month])

That's it.
