Time_select with 12 hour time and time zone in Ruby on Rails

I need to fix the time and time zone for users of the rails 2.3.8 application, but could not come up with a clean solution for creating and analyzing options.

Ideally, I have a drop-down menu for the following:

  • hour (1-12)
  • minute (0-59)
  • AM / PM
  • Timezone

Is there a gem / plugin that does what I'm looking for? Do I need to store both time and timezone in a database? What is the best storage strategy?

In the end, I will have to spit out these values ​​in UTC, but the user should be able to return and view the time in the correct time zone.
