I am creating a multiple-selection list box with :
<% form__list1 = [] %>
<%= select_tag,
options_for_select(["A","B","C","D"],
selected ="A"),
html_options = {"size" => 5, "multiple" => true})
%>
I get
wrong number of arguments (0 for 1)
alluding to form__list1[] . How else should I specify this to not have
this error? -Janna B

Also when you have an error it is worth giving more information on the error reported. When putting code in an email it is best to copy and paste it if possible so as to eliminate typos in the mail, and to ensure that the code shown is exactly as in the app. You may have done this of course.

Similarly for html_options. The only thing that both statements will accomplish is setting local variables to the various array values. - keys in the options array are traditionally symbols; not really a bug, but a slightly incorrect idiom. --Matt Jones
