I''m trying to display a list of pages in xml. I want to change page.update_at to distance_of_time_in_words_to_now. However whenever I run it I get an error saying: undefined method `distance_of_time_in_words_to_now'' I know I can just go the rails api and copy the source, but there must be another way. def list @page = Page.find(:all, :order => "updated_at desc")

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

I''d like to have a count down to a certain date, but display it in words, such as "123 days away" or something. I''m aware of the function "distance_of_time_in_words_to_now()", which will display "about 6 hours" or "12 days" or something like that, but how can I get it to reverse? Pass it a date for future reference, then it will error

any idea how to use distance_of_time_in_words_to_now? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hello, I need to use Date or DateTime for a column instead of Time because I have need to include dates older than 1970. I am using SQL Server for a backend. I have been experimenting with changing the column type in SQL Server, but active record always seems to Time regardless of what the column type is. Is there something I need to declare in my model? I can''t seem to get active

I wanted the distance_of_time_in_words_to_now method to have '' ago'' suffixed to it when the date is in the past, I assumed this would be the default behaviour but apparently not. I know of a REALLY messy way that i could solve this with, but it''s so ugly I can''t be bothered Does anybody have an easy, elegant solution?

Can someone point me to a date/time validator or updater. I have an event start datetime and an event end datetime. I want to validate that the end datetime is after the start datetime.

Hello - My model has created_at and updated_at which get set automatically, as expected, but the time is 5 hours off. For example, if I create a new record at 7:15:25 AM the created_at time shows 12:15:25. I suspect this has to do with my time zone (Eastern Time, United States). But if I do a Time.now, it shows the correct time. Does the Timestamp class use a different zone than the Time

I have a date from a calendar_date_select and a time from a time_select. They go to a date field and a time field in mysql. How do I combine time and date on both sides to make a comparison in a find? I think this is on the right path, right?
