<p>Is it possible to add an option like <code>:include_blank => 'Please Select'</code> in a method <code>select_tag</code> like it is possible with the <code>select</code> method? It seems not to work. Is there any substitute for this for <code>select_tag</code> method?</p>

<p>In Rails 3 there is a <code>:prompt</code> option for <code>select_tag</code>:</p> <pre class="prettyprint"><code>select_tag "things", many_thing_as_options, :prompt => "Please select" </code></pre>

Can I include blank field in select_tag?
