Trying to use a radio button as a selection list

I am new using rails, I am trying to add to a user form a list of icon
images and the user should select the icon he wants to have as icon.
My problem is that I want to save the selected image in a field from
user called "icon_id", on my user_controller I have de function where
I find all icons  @icons = Icon.find(:all)
When I submit the form it doesn''t save the selected radio button in
that field.
I hope someone can help me!
Thanks in advance!!!


My code is:
 <%= stylesheet_link_tag ''top'' %>
       <%= javascript_include_tag :defaults %>
<%= error_messages_for :user %>
<% form_for :user, :url => users_path do |f| -%>

  <div class="boxform">
 <div id="formulario">
 <fieldset>
  <p><label for="login"><%=
_(''Login'') -%></label><br/>
<%= f.text_field :login %></p>

<p><label for="email"><%= _(''Email'')
-%></label><br/>
<%= f.text_field :email %></p>

<p><label for="password"><%=
_(''Password'') -%></label><br/>
<%= f.password_field :password %></p>

<p><label for="password_confirmation"><%=
_(''Confirm Password'') -%></
label><br/>
<%= f.password_field :password_confirmation %></p>
    <p> <label> <%= _(''Select the icon you would like to
have if you
don not have a gravatar at gravatars.com:'')%>
</label></p>


<% for icon in @icons %>
     <img class="imgicon"
src="/images/top/<%=icon.image%>"/>
     <input type="radio" id="icon_id"
name="icon_id"  value="<%=icon.id
%>"



<%end%></fieldset>



 </div>
<div id="boton">
    <button type="submit"><span><em>
<%=_(''Sign Up'') -%> </em></span></
button>

</div>
</div>
<% end -%>

Whenever your controller doesn''t respond to your parameters as
expected,
check your development log to see what parameters it received.

You''ll probably find a bunch of params like this:

{ :user => { :login => ''foo'', :email =>
''bar'' }, :icon_id => 61 }

Notice that icon_id is outside the user hash.

So, two problems:
> <input type="radio" id="icon_id"
name="icon_id" value="<%=icon.id %>"
First, you don''t close the input tag.

Second, you don''t nest icon_id within the user parameters in the name 
attribute of the input tag:

  <input type="radio" id="user_icon_id"
                      name="user[icon_id]"
                      value="<%=icon.id %>" />

Ciao,
Sheldon.

Sounds like you''re using restful_authentication, which uses
attr_accessible
to declare which attributes in the user model can be updated.  If
that''s the
case, just add icon_id to the attr_protected declaration in your user model.

2 ways:

1) set the value of the model field to the checkbox value
2) <%= radio_button :model, :field, ''val'', :checked =>
true %>

Re: Trying to use a radio button as a selection list

Thank you Brandon
I have done it this way:
<input type="radio" id="user_icon_id"
name="user[icon_id]"  value="<
%=icon.id%>" <%= if icon.id==1 then "checked" end%>
style="background-
color:#fff; color: #0198ff;" />
