Hi All, I just created a new CRUD "expense" (using Rails 2.3.5 scaffold) which included "amount:decimal". When I:
1. populated the amount field of a new expense with 5 characters: 12.50 and 2. saved the new record I got a display of the new record that showed Amount to be merely "12". I clicked Update and put my cursor over the data field for Amount and got a tool-tip display of 12.50. On the other hand, Date seems to be handled fine IMHO, both on input and display. Is the problem that MySQL 2.0.37 doesn't really implement "decimal" and so I should switch to float and then do my own formatting for a text field?
