Are you generating your form using form_for :foo ?, if so then you''d want something like this: <%= foo.select_tag :jul10, %w( Y N R ) %> Assuming jul10 is a member of the object you''re saving into (using update_attributes, or new(params[:foobar])). Does this help, if not, what does your controller method look like that is saving the record?

erm...i''m new to ruby =( don''t really understand what you
said, so
sorry
but i''m not generating my form, i created this <create> form
myself
and replaced it in the _form.rhtml
<td><p align="right">Jul/10:</td>
<td><%= select_tag "jul10",
"<option>Y</option><option>N</option><option>R</option>"
%></td>
produces the combo box but doesn''t actually save the value into my
database when the user clicks create, everything else that the user
types in other fields can be saved though.
below is the whole _form.rhtml
<p>
<%= error_messages_for ''course'' %>
</div>
<!--[form:course]-->
<table cellpadding="2">
<tr>
<td><h3>Course Details:<h3></td>
</tr>
...
<tr>
<td><h3>Presentation Details:</h3></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><p align="right">Final Presentation (mmm
yyyy):</p></td>
<td align="left"><%= text_field "course",
"final_presentation", :size=>"5" %></td>
<td><p align="right">Presentation
Pattern:</p></td>
<td align="left"><%= text_field "course",
"presentation_pattern", :size=>"30" %></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><p align="right">Jan/08:</td>
<td><%= select_tag "jan08",
"<option>Y</option><option>N</
option><option>R</option>" %></td>
<td><p align="right">Jul/08:</td>
<td><%= select_tag "jul08",
"<option>Y</option><option>N</
option><option>R</option>" %></td>
</tr>
...
</table>
<!--[eoform:course]-->
thanks!
