options_from_collection_for_select
I have just started using RoR and am creating some select boxes on my form with the following code: <%= select_tag(options_from_collection_for_select(Owner.all, :id, :fname)) %> My problem is that it does NOT return the first record from the table, but just the second and succeeding records. Does anyone have any ideas on how I can get the first record included in the select box? Thanks.

collection_select default selected value
Hiall, Unfortunately I just can''t find out how to setup a default selected value when using collection_select. My call is like so: <%= collection_select(:consultant, :lastname, @consultants, :id, :lastname, { :selected => @current_consultant.id } ) %> which is not working, I debugged so far that I know that @current_consultant.id contains the correct value. Any tips? cheers
