First have a look at the docs and then come back with your best atempt
and explain what does not work about it.
However, are you sure you want to use select_tag rather than using
form_for and f.select? There are occasions when using form_tag and
select_tag is appropriate but if possible then use form_for.

If you have not already done so then work right through a tutorial
such as railstutorial.org which is free to use online and will show
you the basics of rails.

OK, I understand. I don’t know of a way to do that. Why do you need
it?

“David”.html_safe,{:name=>{‘sample’}}%>
