All, My initial list is rather busy. I would like to shorten the created_on and updated_on fields to just display the date, not the time. Best wold be a simple 12/28/05 type of presentation. I''ve found the format helpers in rdoc. (ie. distance_of_time_in_words_to_now ), but none seem to be what I''m looking for. How do I control the date format of a timestamp field? Thanks

Hi, Just wondering how I get both the current date and time to display here (so far I can only get the date OR the time): @tblregisteredphone.txtregisterdatetime = Date.today Also, how can I change the format of the date and time from: Tue Apr 04 00:00:00 GMT Daylight Time 2006 to 2006-04-04 12:04:00 ?? I''m sure it''s very simple, I just don''t know how
