Rails - Oct 2006 - Showing selected item when editing form with select drop-down menu.

I''ve got a drop-down menu in a form that I created like this:

<%= select_tag ''employee[role]'', options_for_select(
[[''Admin'',''admin''],[''Employee'',''employee'']]
) %>

When editing a form, how do I get my drop-down to show the item from
the database as selected. Right now, it is just defaulting to the first
item in the drop-down  list. 

Thanks for the help. 
Sarah
