Vincent Durand 597792c988 Update rescued exception
The converter API allows the date as parameter and it needs to be
rescued with an invalid date, and the exception is
`PG::InvalidDatetimeFormat`, so the safest solution was to use the
first ancestor of this exception which is the same one as the current
`PG::DatetimeFieldOverflow`.

  fx.rates = data.rates
  var rate = fx(1).from("GBP").to("USD")
  alert("£1 = $" + rate.toFixed(4))
}

$.getJSON("http://api.fixer.io/latest", demo)
