Ok.. I have been doing some experimentation.. and honestly, now I am
beginning to get a bit ticked off with how inconsistently this is being
handled....
For example, if you replace the f.select() in my example code with:
select_tag("working", options_for_select([["", ""], ["Yes", true],
["No",false]], @testing.working))
it WORKS! (well minus the posting values back to the form and having it
update the database since its not in the model..
HOWEVER:
f.select (:working, [["", ""], ["Yes", true], ["No", false]], {:selected =>
@testing.working})
does NOT work.
REALLY?!
In fact I changed the selections choices to have ["first", "first"] ahead of
the "" choice to test a theory that it wasn't actually matching
_anything_... and it turns out that's what its doing, for the case of
"false" it doesn't actually match ANYTHING. you can replace ":selected =>
false" and it won't work, it will select "Yes".. go ahead, try it.)...
HOWEVER, it works just fine with select_tag?! AUUUGH.
I've been through the rails code a couple of times, but I cannot see where
this obtuse bug is laying.
