Hi all, I have this very simple code: <select id="user_country" name="user[country]" style="width:255px;" class="input" size="1"> <% for country in @countries -%> <% if country.id == @user.country %> <option value="<%= country.id %>" selected="selected"><%= country.name %></option> <% else %> <option value="<%= country.id %>"><%= country.name %></option> <% end %> <% end -%> </select> this produces a list of countrynames and when the user country is the same it should select it. It does select it - but the select drop down is showing the first entry instead of the selected one??? any ideas? I dont know whats up with that thanks for any tip andreas -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

ehhhh...
this is not true or?
in rails is a complete country list???
I found this here:
country_select(object, method, priority_countries = nil, options = {},
html_options = {})
I build my own database with countries today:(
it seams there is a command for anything in rails
aaaahhhh... my whole day of work to build the country database is not
needed

ok, found the problem
it was a chaching problem of firefox :/
and I replaced my ugly styled country selector with the fresh and easy
to use rails verson
<%=select("user", "country", Country.find_all.collect
{|p| [ p.name,
p.id ] }, { :include_blank => true }, :class => ''input'',
:style =>
''width:255px'') %>
live can be so easy
