# Accepts a container (hash, array, enumerable, your type) and returns a string of option tags. Given a container
|
||
|
|
# where the elements respond to first and last (such as a two-element array), the "lasts" serve as option values and
|
||
|
|
# the "firsts" as option text. Hashes are turned into this form automatically, so the keys become "firsts" and values
|
||
|
|
# become lasts. If +selected+ is specified, the matching "last" or element will get the selected option-tag.
|
||
|
|
#
|
||
|
|
# Examples (call, result):
|
||
|
|
# html_options([["Dollar", "$"], ["Kroner", "DKK"]])
|
||
|
|
# <option value="$">Dollar</option>\n<option value="DKK">Kroner</option>
|
||
|
|
#
|
||
|
|
# html_options([ "VISA", "Mastercard" ], "Mastercard")
|
||
|
|
# <option>VISA</option>\n<option selected>Mastercard</option>
|
||
|
|
#
|
||
|
|
# html_options({ "Basic" => "$20", "Plus" => "$40" }, "$40")

# <option value="$20">Basic</option>\n<option value="$40" selected>Plus</option>
