Rails: Predefining date formats
To have a predefined set of date formats (e.g. to make a short version looking like 11/2009 and a long version displaying 01.11.2009 or 2009/11/01) you can define them in config/environment.rb, right after the final end notation:
Time::DATE_FORMATS[:short] = "%d.%m.%Y at %H:%M"
Time::DATE_FORMATS[:news] = "%d.%m.%y"

Can you post a link to some more resources (or write them down in a post) – I’m trying to do extensive date formatting in a portal solution but I would like to have some more information than just api.rubyonrails.org.
