ActiveScaffold expects things to be named in particular ways, I expect
the select box you've generated isn't created parameters named the way
it wants. You might be able to work out what the parameters should
look like by letting activescaffold generate what it wants (ie don't
use your partial) and seeing where the differences are. There's also
an activescaffold google group out there.
