Ruby on Rails

Hassan,

Please hold off on looking at my last, unreasonably large post. I'm
embarrassed to have posted such a monstrosity.

I found a bunch of tutorials on collection_select, so I should be
able to discover where I've gone astray in trying to apply that method
in my app. I'll post back how I solved my problem using those
resources, should I be so fortunate.

Best wishes,
Richard
