thanks fred. changing to an array fixed the ordering problems. for the select statement, i changed the initial value for -->Fake to -1 select_tag(:fake, options_for_select([["-->Fake","-1"],["Yes",1],["No",0]], params[:fake].to_i)) everything works great! -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
