Showing selected item when editing form with select drop-down menu.

[sarah_hutchinson]

I've got a drop-down menu in a form that I created like this:

<%= select_tag 'employee[role]', options_for_select( [['Admin','admin'],['Employee','employee']] ) %>

When editing a form, how do I get my drop-down to show the item from the database as selected. Right now, it is just defaulting to the first item in the drop-down list.

Thanks for the help. Sarah
