ok, so I''m displaying a list of recipes and want the created_at to be displayed with distance_of_time_in_words_to_now function. I did it and it worked until just recently. It stopped working around the time we chagned the mysql gem to the mysl2 gem (possibly not related). Anyway my code line in the view is: <%= distance_of_time_in_words_to_now(recipe.created_at) %> as i said that worked and hasn''t been changed since it was last working. the error I''m getting is: NoMethodError in Recipes#index Showing E:/Documents/Websites/nutrition-calculator/trunk/app/views/ recipes/_recipes_partial.html.erb where line #16 raised: undefined method `abs'' for 2011-03-29 15:31:47 +0800:Time Any ideas as to what''s going on here? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
