I'm trying to make my users Time zone be the current Time zone of my application so everything they interact will be by it. I run into an <code>ArgumentError</code> for my method inside of my ApplicationController though. application_controller.rb <pre><code>before_filter :set_user_time_zone private def set_user_time_zone if signed_in? Time.zone = Time.now.in_time_zone(current_user.time_zone) end end </code></pre> Notes: current_user is a <a href="https://github.com/plataformatec/devise#controller-filters-and-helpers" rel="nofollow">Devise Helper</a> and my User model as a <code>:time_zone</code> column. Than the error: <pre><code>invalid argument to TimeZone[]: Mon, 20 Aug 2012 13:16:20 JST +09:00 </code></pre> I don't know where to go from here. Any ideas on how to correct this? Thanks. UPDATE <pre><code>class Price attr_accessible :date def self.today where(:date => Date.today) end end </code></pre> If my method does: <pre><code>def set_user_time_zone if signed_in? Time.zone = current_user.time_zone end end </code></pre> The problem I have my times are like this: <pre><code> Time.now = US EAST- 2012-08-22 21:17:03 -0400 Time.zone = TOKYO - (GMT+09:00) Tokyo Time.zone.now 2012-08-23 10:17:03 +0900 </code></pre> Which means all of my <code>Date</code> methods go by <code>Time.now = US EAST- 2012-08-22 21:17:03 -0400</code> when it should be <pre><code>Time.zone.now 2012-08-23 10:17:03 +0900 </code></pre> How can I get it to the latter?

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
