Ruby on Rails

hi,

i am using http://arshaw.com/fullcalendar/ to display a calendar.

It uses json to populate the calendar events.

The JSON looks like this
events: [
{
title: 'All Day Event',
start: new Date(y, m, 1)
},
{
title: 'Long Event',
start: new Date(y, m, d-5),
end: new Date(y, m, d-2)
},
{
id: 999,
title: 'Repeating Event',
start: new Date(y, m, d-3, 16, 0),
allDay: false
}
]

A date looks like Fri Jul 29 2011 22:54:08 GMT-0400 (EDT)

When i select from my events table i run:
@member_calendars = Member::Calendar.find_by_sql("SELECT * from
calendars")
@json_calendar = ActiveSupport::JSON.encode(@member_calendars)

How can i get my dates into a format that works for this json object?

Also, how would i pull my json object into the view so i can play with
it in javascript.

The following code treats my json object as a string:

var foo = '<%= @json_calendar %>';
$.each(foo, function(i, item) {
alert(i);
});

It will alert each and every character from my object
