Hello, Using a locale I can format the same number for displaying it: database: 1900.58 en layout: 1,900.58 cat layout: 1.900,58 this is ok .... but how I can do the reverse of it, when the user submits via form a number in it''s locale format ? for example if the user enters in cat locale: 1900,58 the resulted number is 1900.00 currently I''m evaluating every field number and replacing commas by dots, but it''s a pain to format/adjust everyplace there is a number coming from a form. I thought Rails I18n should handle this in a transparent manner ... or sure I''m missing the point here and maybe there''s a function to do it ... thanks! r. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
