A possible solution is to ask your users what their local time zone is using the time zone select helper. Then store that value in their user record. Then assume all times are in the time zone that you store for them. Dealing with time zones is not a trivial issue and you won't be able to rely on time zone names or abbreviations. As mentioned earlier, users will probably not even know what to enter anyway. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
