In PHP, there was an argument you could pass to the Date function to get the number of days in the current month: echo date("t"); // Outputs "28" for February I don''t see anything like this in Ruby/Rails. Right now, I''m using a very ugly line to pull the last day of the month: @number_of_days = (Date.strptime(Date.today.strftime("%Y-%m-01"))

Hi Railers, I''m wondering if anyone has found a nice solution to the problem of validating dates to prevent things like 29th February 2005, or 31st September and so on? I see it was discussed before... http://wrath.rubyonrails.org/pipermail/rails/2005-March/003804.html ...but with no particularly ideal solution... http://wrath.rubyonrails.org/pipermail/rails/2005-March/003815.html

i know it''s probably really simple, how do i work out someone''s age if i have their d.o.b. stored as a date in my db. cheers -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
