    # Provides a number of methods for turning different kinds of containers into a set of option tags.
    # == Options
    # The <tt>collection_select</tt>, <tt>country_select</tt>, <tt>select</tt>,
    # and <tt>time_zone_select</tt> methods take an <tt>options</tt> parameter,
    # a hash.
    #
    # * <tt>:include_blank</tt> - set to true or a prompt string if the first option element of the select element is a blank. Useful if there is not a default value required for the select element.
    #
    # For example,
    #
    #   select("post", "category", Post::CATEGORIES, {:include_blank => true})
    #
    # could become:
    #
    #   <select name="post[category]">
    #     <option></option>
    #     <option>joke</option>
    #     <option>poem</option>
    #   </select>
    #
    # Another common case is a select tag for an <tt>belongs_to</tt>-associated object.
    #
    # Example with @post.person_id => 2:
    #
    #   select("post", "person_id", Person.find(:all).collect {|p| [ p.name, p.id ] }, {:include_blank => 'None'})
    #
    # could become:
    #
    #   <select name="post[person_id]">
    #     <option value="">None</option>
    #     <option value="1">David</option>
    #     <option value="2" selected="selected">Sam</option>
    #     <option value="3">Tobias</option>
    #   </select>
    #
    # * <tt>:prompt</tt> - set to true or a prompt string. When the select element doesn't have a value yet, this prepends an option with a generic prompt -- "Please select" -- or the given prompt string.
    #
    # Example:
    #
    #   select("post", "person_id", Person.find(:all).collect {|p| [ p.name, p.id ] }, {:prompt => 'Select Person'})
    #
    # could become:
    #
    #   <select name="post[person_id]">
    #     <option value="">Select Person</option>
    #     <option value="1">David</option>
    #     <option value="2">Sam</option>
    #     <option value="3">Tobias</option>
    #   </select>
    module FormOptionsHelper
      include ERB::Util

      # Create a select tag and a series of contained option tags for the provided object and method.
      # The option currently held by the object will be selected, provided that the object is available.
      # See options_for_select for the required format of the choices parameter.
      #
      # Example with @post.person_id => 1:
      #   select("post", "person_id", Person.find(:all).collect {|p| [ p.name, p.id ] }, { :include_blank => true })
      #
      # could become:
      #
      #   <select name="post[person_id]">
      #     <option value=""></option>
      #     <option value="1" selected="selected">David</option>
      #     <option value="2">Sam</option>
      #     <option value="3">Tobias</option>
      #   </select>
      #
      # This can be used to provide a default set of options in the standard way: before rendering the create form, a
      # new model instance is assigned the default options and bound to @model_name. Usually this model is not saved
      # to the database. Instead, a second model object is created when the create request is received.
      # This allows the user to submit a form page more than once with the expected results of creating multiple records.
      # In addition, this allows a single partial to be used to generate form inputs for both edit and create forms.
      #
      # By default, post.person_id is the selected option.  Specify :selected => value to use a different selection
      # or :selected => nil to leave all options unselected.
      def select(object, method, choices, options = {}, html_options = {})
        InstanceTag.new(object, method, self, nil, options.delete(:object)).to_select_tag(choices, options, html_options)

      # Returns <tt><select></tt> and <tt><option></tt> tags for the collection of existing return values of
      # +method+ for +object+'s class. The value returned from calling +method+ on the instance +object+ will
      # be selected. If calling +method+ returns +nil+, no selection is made without including <tt>:prompt</tt>
      # or <tt>:include_blank</tt> in the +options+ hash.
      #
      # The <tt>:value_method</tt> and <tt>:text_method</tt> parameters are methods to be called on each member
      # of +collection+. The return values are used as the +value+ attribute and contents of each
      # <tt><option></tt> tag, respectively.
      # 
      # Example object structure for use with this method:
      #   class Post < ActiveRecord::Base

      #   class Author < ActiveRecord::Base
      #     has_many :posts

      #     end

      #
      # Sample usage (selecting the associated +Author+ for an instance of +Post+, <tt>@post</tt>):
      #   collection_select(:post, :author_id, Author.find(:all), :id, :name_with_initial, {:prompt => true})
