Thanks for your reply colin
but the thing is, i dont control the format. Im trying to parse brithday given by facebook. it give both of information the locale like 'en_US' and then the birthday like '10/21/1980' and it's differ according the facebook user's setting.
if this is not built in in ruby/rails, is there any gem for this ?

provide separate fields for each part. datetime_select can do this

If you really need to do it however, then provided you know what the
