I am having a lot of trouble getting my time zone select to default to the user's previously selected time zone. Here's my code:
<%= time_zone_select :other, :time_zone, TimeZone.us_zones, :selected => cookies[:time_zone] %>

<%= time_zone_select :other, :time_zone, TimeZone.us_zones, :selected => "Hawaii" %>
That doesn't work either. Any ideas?
Here's what the API says about it:
