This happens when in the new does not get value And as one of the
post in the railscast page suggest it can be solved with an instance
varibale like
def formdate_string
@formdate_string || (formdate.to_s(:db) unless formdate.nil?)
end
def formdate_string=(fdate_str)
@formdate_string = fdate_str
self.formdate = Date.parse(@formdate_string)
rescue ArgumentError
@formdate_invalid = true
end
@formdate_invalid can be used in def validate
