And I don't do any special parsing, I just assign the params to a record using either #new or #update_attributes. To make it clearer, @post = Post.new params[:post] # params[:post][:start_at] contains the time string from the form Assuming that params[:post][:start_at] = Aug 23, 2011 2:52pm >> @post.start_at # Tue, 23 Aug 2011 14:52:00 EST +10:00 for 3.0.3 >> @post.start_at # Wed, 24 Aug 2011 00:52:00 EST +10:00 for 3.0.10 > Colin > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group. > To post to this group, send email to [email protected]. > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to > [email protected]. > For more options, visit this group at > http://groups.google.com/group/rubyonrails-talk?hl=en. > > -- ------------------------------------------------------------- visit my blog at http://jimlabs.heroku.com -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
