I am adding a function to check for 2 digit dates and change them into
4 digit before a Date.new has time to choke on it. My model is :

class Person < ActiveRecord::Base
        belongs_to :household

  def before_validation
   # debugger
    self.month_int = self.month.to_i
    self.day_int = self.day.to_i
    self.year_int = self.year.to_i
    if (year_int > 0) && (month_int > 0) && (month_int < 13) &&
(day_int > 0)&& (day_int < 32)
    if (self.year_int < 100)
      @compare = Date.new(2000+self.year_int,self.month_int,
self.day_int)
      if (@compare > Date.today)
         self.year_int = 1900+self.year_int
      else
         self.year_int = 2000+self.year_int
      end
      self.year = self.year_int.to_s
    end
      self.birthday = Date.new(self.year_int, self.month_int,
self.day_int)
    else
      errors.add("Date")
    end
debugger
end

  validates_inclusion_of :month_int, :in => 1..12,
          :message => "should be between 1 and 12"
  validates_inclusion_of :day_int, :in => 1..31,
            :message => "should be between 1 and 31"
  validates_numericality_of :year_int
  validates_inclusion_of :sex, :in => %w{ M F },
            :message => "should be 'M' or 'm' or 'F' or 'f'"
  validates_presence_of :sex, :month, :day, :year
  validates_date :birthday, :before => Date.today+1, :after => 'Jan 1
1900', :before_message => 'Needs to be today or
before.', :after_message => 'Needs to be after 1/1/1900.'


end


since I added the code that changes a model variable, I get 2
breakpoints from the 2 changes. This is not needed by my app and
causes a breakpoint that my user won't know how to bypass. Please help
with removing this issue. I assume rails is error-checking my code and
having a fit about not telling the views that a field has changed..
