Question

I am building a rails ecommerce application and would like to integrate a currency exchange system were visitors can click on a check box and a list of countries will be displayed and when clicked on the value of the currencies of products on the site changes to the value of the selected countries currency. Is there a rails gem that connects to a currency exchange server and authomaticall converts the currency for me or any ideas of how i can accomplish this. Thank you.

There seems to be some workaround to do exactly what you want to do, however it’ll give you a decent base to what you’re aiming for.
