depends on how you create that drop down box. Most of the rails
helpers have a :prompt option.

If you are still having difficulty, what code in your view file are
you using to show the select box?

Are you saying that you do not know which file in your application is
showing the select box? If you do not know then how am I to know?
It may be useful for you to go through some tutorials on how RoR
works. The Rails guides are very good.

Thank you Colin,
Please find the following issue and code which i asked …

issue:-

Drop down questions shouldn’t have a None option- should say “Select
One”.

Detailed Description for the issue:-

In the dropdown question it defaults to “none”, that is confusing, can
you have it say, “Select One”

CODE:–

This is my file location in my local
machine:-C:\rails\sme_on_rails\app\views\presentation\content\question_widgets_select.rhtml
_select.rhtml code:-

<% # $Id: _select.rhtml 5267 2009-04-02 22:05:54Z efinnera $
-%>

<% select_options = [] -%>
<%
@question.answers.find(:all, :order => “position ASC”, :conditions =>
[‘parent_id IS NULL’]).each{|answer|
at = get_translation(answer, @translation.locale_id)
select_options << [at.value, answer.id.to_s] if at
}
select_options = [[t(‘content_page.quiz_response.none’, ‘Select One’),
nil]].concat(select_options.compact)
-%>
<% onclick_script = ‘’ %>
<% onclick_script +=
“toggleOtherTextBox(‘submitted_quiz_#{@question.id}_#{@other_answer_id}’);”%>
<% onclick_script += “checkSkipping(#{@question.position - 1})”%>
<% previous_selection = params[:submitted_quiz] ?
params[:submitted_quiz][@question.id.to_s] : nil %>

<%= select_tag(“submitted_quiz[#{@question.id.to_s}]”,
options_for_quiz_select(select_options, @question, previous_selection),
:disabled => (@ready_to_grade ? true : false), :onchange =>

Your app is localized: you need to update the yml file with the
translations (for the key content_page.quiz_response.none )
