Here's another +1 on being able to format the value in a form helper before it's displayed. This shouldn't be in my model since it's purely a display issue. I'd be happy if I could specify another helper method to perform the formatting. Something like: <%= text_field :product, :price, :formatter => :number_to_currency -%> -Derrick Spell --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Core" group.
