Pulling from more then on table to populate a select_box

I have two tables - Hotels and HotelAllBrands - and I need to pull data
from both tables to fill in a select_box. Current I am just pulling from
one:

<%= select( “hotelmembership”, “hotel_id”, Hotel.find( :all,
:order=> ‘name’ ).collect {|h| [h.name, h.id]},
{ :include_blank => FALSE }) %>

How do I make the above select also pull from the other table? Thanks,

The easiest (and IMHO opinion, the most appropriate MVC) way is to do
the
finds in your controller, combine the results into a single instance
variable, and feed the select with that.
