If you look at the underlying HTML you'll often find that a select_list has values hidden inside the list which are available as an alternative selection method (select_value). I think if you want to select an option by its place in the list (dangerous and prone to errors if the list changes) then you can use ".options.map(&:text)" to get an array which contains all the options, then pick whichever one you want from that list. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
