controlling format for time duration field?

[Adam Spiers]

Hi all,

I have a 'duration' field in one of my models representing a time duration. The MySQL column type is TIME; however when editing via the #edit action, ActiveScaffold shows it in this format:

  0000-00-00 04:00:00

How can I make it more human readable? I couldn't find anything relating to time fields in the ActiveScaffold wiki.

Ideally it would also have friendlier widget for changing the duration (e.g. a JQueryUI slider snapping to 30 minute increments)

Thanks,
Adam

You will have to create a form override, or form_ui helper method.

If you submit it I could add it to ActiveScaffold
