I would like to have a date control on a page and I would like a behavior similar to what you get using date_select with the :include_blank => true option where the first value in the dropdown is "- Month -", "- Day -", or "- Year -" rather than a blank value for the respective month, day, and year select fields. I took a look at the ruby source for

Here''s my form: <% form_tag(tasks_path, :method => :get) do %> <%= select_month(Date.today, :prefix => ''month'', :discard_type => true %> <%= select_year(Date.today, :prefix => ''year'', :discard_type => true %> <button>go</button> <% end %> If you submit this form, the request generates an URL like this: / tasks?month=7&year=2008 sent to the #index method on Ta...

I''ve been to the RoR api docs trying to find out about options for various methods (mostly for select helper methods), yet I find no listing of options even when the method described says that it takes options. How can I find out what are valid options say for a date_select tag? Thanks, Dave
