Hi Frederick,
That makes a lot more sense and that's what I've done. I think I was
expecting too much magic out of Active Record / Rails. I'm still
getting up to speed on this time zone stuff. I'm not sure why the prior
approach ever worked at all (on my Mac). There are times where I still
need an actual TimeZone object, so I've added the following method to my
User class.
def time_zone_object
::ActiveSupport::TimeZone[time_zone]
end
And the following if I need to format a time based on the user's time
zone.
def tz_strftime(format, time)
time_zone_object.tzinfo.strftime(format, time)
end
Problem solved. Thanks again for the help.
