Us_states plugin

Rails

Hello,

I am trying to figure out how to use the options available with the
us_states plugin. What is the proper syntax for using the :priority
and :with_abbreviation options?

Thanks,
jeremy

:with_abbreviation => true
:priority matches the usage in country_select, which is basically an
array of priority states.

:priority => %w(Texas California)

Thanks Rick. :with_abbreviation worked just as described. However, the
:priority example isn’t functioning for me.

<%= us_state_select ‘child’, ‘state’, :priority => %w(Texas California)
%>

It generates the “–” option, but doesn’t generate the Texas and
California options above it…

Is there something else I’m missing?

I just had the same question/problem. This should do the trick…
:priority => %(TX CA)
