# Provides a number of methods for turning different kinds of containers into a set of option tags.

# 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.
# The <tt>collection_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.
