Or better yet, "11 July 2011" - this makes it unambiguous. If you're expecting users to type in dates in a certain format without making mistakes, you're setting yourself up for lots of problems. I'd also suggest using a date-select JS plugin to make it very easy for your users to select the right date. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
