Thanks. Makes sense.

How can I do this for datetime columns? In the past active_scaffold
(official branch) under rails 2.3.X would automatically create a
datetime_select form for datetime columns. Now it defaults to a blank
textbox.

How can I replace this form override with something that will work with
bulk_update?

  def expires_at_form_column(record, input_name)
    datetime_select(:record, :expires_at,
      :start_year => Time.now.year - 5, :end_year => Time.now.year + 5,
      :default => Time.now,
      :order => [:day, :month, :year])
  end

Thanks!
