BUT, This is adding a option extra in the top as United states, the same happened to me when i used the other two options which i mentioned earlier.. Is it possible to show the United States in the list selected as default. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
