#country_select(object, method, priorities_or_options = {}, options_or_html_options = {}, html_options = {}) ⇒ Object

Generate select and country option tags for the given object and method. A common use of this would be to allow users to select a state subregion within a given country.

object - The model object to generate the select for method - The attribute on the object options - Other options pertaining to option tag generation. See

`region_options_for_select`.

html_options - Options to use when generating the select tag- class,
