When displaying a date field using a text_field object, is it possible to specify how the date will be formatted? <%= text_field ''item'', ''created_at'', {:class=>"text-input", :size=>18, :disabled=> true} produces 2006-07-07 12:00:00 I would like to reformat it to something like 07/07/2006 12:00pm -- Posted via
