    # The Date Helper primarily creates select/option tags for different kinds of dates and date elements. All of the select-type methods
    # share a number of common options that are as follows:
    #
    # * <tt>:prefix</tt> - overwrites the default prefix of "date" used for the select names. So specifying "birthday" would give
    #   birthday[month] instead of date[month] if passed to the select_month method.
    # * <tt>:include_blank</tt> - set to true if it should be possible to set an empty date.
    # * <tt>:discard_type</tt> - set to true if you want to discard the type part of the select name. If set to true, the select_month
    #   method would use simply "date" (which can be overwritten using <tt>:prefix</tt>) instead of "date[month]".

      # Reports the approximate distance in time between two Time or Date objects or integers as seconds.
      # Set <tt>include_seconds</tt> to true if you want more detailed approximations when distance < 1 min, 29 secs
      # Distances are reported base on the following table:

      # 0 <-> 29 secs                                                             # => less than a minute

      # which accepts all the keys that each of the individual select builders do (like :use_month_numbers for select_month) as well as a range of
      # discard options. The discard options are <tt>:discard_year</tt>, <tt>:discard_month</tt> and <tt>:discard_day</tt>. Set to true, they'll
      # drop the respective select. Discarding the month select will also automatically discard the day select. It's also possible to explicitly
      # set the order of the tags using the <tt>:order</tt> option with an array of symbols <tt>:year</tt>, <tt>:month</tt> and <tt>:day</tt> in
      # the desired order. Symbols may be omitted and the respective select is not included.
      #
      # Passing :disabled => true as part of the +options+ will make elements inaccessible for change.
