similar to: TZInfo::Timezone problem selected value

Hi. Using this: <%= time_zone_select("account", "time_zone" %> I get a list of time zones options, like eg.: <option value="Athens">(GMT+02:00) Athens</option> But as I''m using TZInfo::Timezone, I need to map ''Athens'' to ''Europe/Athens'' I can see that the mapping I''m looking for is

Hello everyone I wonder if anyone can point me to the library for timezone management with DST support, which has timezones, like flickr has. I know that there is TZInfo, but it''s a bit different for it has huge list of available timezones in ''Continent/City'' format. I would like my application to have timezones list more like on flickr (or windows regional settings) -

Friends, So there I was, minding my own business, trying to make my rails app timezone aware (DST, as well), since it''s all about the timing with this one. There are a number of excellent articles that I''ve been working off of, in particular this one internet archived version of Scott Barron''s very useful article on the subject that is no longer available at the

I''m new to this list, I''m a student in History, Computerscience and a bit of Philosophy from the Netherlands... I have started using rails a few weeks ago, I did read the Agile Webdevelopment with Rails book, and I generally started to love Rails for it''s sheer beauty and intelligent structure... However I came across something that puzzles me quite a bit. It''s

I sent this earlier but I don''t think it ever came through. Sorry if this is a reposting. When using :priority_zones for time_zone_select in a manner described by the API docs for ActionView::Helpers::FormOptionsHelper I''m getting errors.

Hi , Is there anyway I can display time in “US-Central” or “US-Eastern” format instead of “ America-New york” or “ Europe-Athens” format at the top of drop down list using Tzinfo . I am presently using “time_zone_select” which displays US zones on top of drop down in “ America-New york” format . <%= time_zone_select (''profile'',

Hi, I am using the tzinfo gem and plugins to manage time zone support in my app. In one of the views I have the following select <%= time_zone_select ''user'', ''time_zone'', TZInfo::Timezone.all.sort, :model => TZInfo::Timezone %> This produces a list of all possible countries, does anyone know of a way to only display the UTC + / - options and not the

As we all know it, Time Zones are a pain in the neck. Rails make things easier by providing some nice helpers. However, I recently faced a challenge when trying to pre select a time zone for a user. Using the time_zone_select helper, there''s simply no way you can pre select a timezone for a user unless you already saved the time zone in his/her record. Creating a new user or editing a

We are using time_zone_options_for_select for the letting the user to select the timezone to assign to an object. But we are having trouble because currently we are on DST period, so in utc -5 but the list is showing utc-6 (the normal offset) As per usage suggested in this issue: https://github.com/rails/rails/issues/7297. I wrote a custom method to solve this temporarily:

Hello, Using rails 2.3.9 and ruby 1.8.7 I am trying add time zone in the site according to user''s time zone (selected by the user from the drop down of time zones)Code is done as follows, but time zone is not getting saved in the database. IN Application Controller before_filter :set_time_zone def set_time_zone Time.zone = current_user.time_zone if current_user end IN View

There''s got to be an easier way... I am building an event manager and as part of it, the user selects the time zone of the event from a drop-down list using the time_zone_select helper. This is stored in the events table as a string. Because of legacy data which is stored in UTC, I want to keep the dates and times in the table as UTC but when I display it, I want to show the abbreviated

Hi List I have one question about MGCP in asterisk. I have a media gateway, and I want to have asterisk to work with the media gateway.

Hi, I am just starting to work with tzinfo, and I need to figure out how US states map to tzinfo time zones, or in other words what time zone(s) each US state is in. If anybody has already collected this data and would be willing to share it (and thus save me a couple of hours of work) that would be highly appreciated! Thanks!

Hey everyone - I googled till my face was blue and finally managed to update my setup at dreamhost to run "local" gems. Installed the tzinfo gem from a mirror and updated my app to Rails edge. I fired up the console in my app to check if my subsequent install of tzinfo worked out and here''s the output. $ ruby script/console Loading development environment. >> gem

I am upgrading a Rails 1.2.6 app to Rails 2.1.0 that had used tzinfo gem to manage time zones. Time zone support is built into Rails 2.1.0 and is based on the tzinfo gem. However, it is slightly different (I do not know how slightly) and causes a time based test to fail that passes in Rails 2.0.2 (since it did not have Time Zone support, it uses the tzinfo gem and the test works). If there is

Hi. I get the following error off and on in my app. I''m running latest EdgeRails in development mode, and use the tzinfo_timezone plugin and the tzinfo 0.3.3 gem. I''ve checked line 210 in tzinfo_timezone.rb but cannot relate that to an object modification in tzinfo. Any tips much appreciated.
