Rails - Jun 2006 - html_options and select()

I am trying to add html_options to select():
<%=select(:user,
:id,[[''me'',1],[''myself'',2],[''and
I'',3]], :select =>
{},:html_options => {"size" => 5, "multiple" =>
true})%>

This does not work...  How do I get the html_options to work?


ActionView::Helpers::FormOptionsHelper

Try the following:

<%=select(:user,
:id,[[''me'',1],[''myself'',2],[''and
I'',3]], {},
{"size" => 5, "multiple" => true})%>

options and html_options are two separate hash parameters. The syntax 
you were using would have passed the following hash as options and left 
html_options empty:

{:select=>{}, :html_options=>{"size"=>5,
"multiple"=>true}}
