Need help with list boxes

Hello everybody,

I have a list box whose values i am getting from controller class.
There is a submit button below it.when it is pressed, i always loose
the value which was selected and once again the first value is
displayed. I have made the use of “selected” but everytime i want the
last value to be displayed in list box that was selected once the
submit button is pressed.

the concern rhtml code is :

<% for supplier in @suppliers %> <%= supplier %> <% end %>


Any help would really be appreciated
thanks a lot,
Czar
