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. Here is an API docs example: time_zone_select( “user”, ‘time_zone’, TimeZone.us_zones, :default => “Pacific Time (US & Canada)”)
When using this code I get “uninitialized constant ActionView::CompiledTemplates::TimeZone”.
The first thing I noticed was that TimeZone is camel cased. This seems confusing to me considering TZInfo::Timezone is proper cased. I tried using proper cased Timezone and continued to get the same error. Next, I tried using TZInfo::Timezone, this worked.
time_zone_select( “user”, ‘time_zone’, TZInfo::Timezone.us_zones, :default => “Pacific Time (US & Canada)”)
It seems that I’m either doing it wrong, there is a different way to do it in Rails 3.0, the documentation is wrong, or there is a bug (understandable since I’m using Rails 3.0 beta).
Can anybody shed light on this?
