Rails - select class not applied

Hi, previously my code was like this, I tried much using, html_options, options, but class is not applied for select.

<%= f.select 'difficulty', options_for_select({ "Easy" => "1", "Medium" => "3", "Hard" => "5"}, get_difficulty(@tour).to_s), :class =>'input_text' %>

Right way to do:

<%= select :tour, :difficulty, { "Easy" => "1", "Medium" => "3", "Hard" => "5"}, {:selected=>get_difficulty(@tour).to_s}, :class=>"input_text" %>

Now class is applied!!!

Any other better way pls tel me,,.</span>

You’re in the middle of a conflicted merge (git)

Problem
Trying to update (pull) in git causes the error ‘you’re in the middle of a conflicted merge’.

How to resolve a Git Conflict? 

Solution
NOTE: Take a backup of your code before you do this. This will remove all your changes and revert to master branch!!

To be able to get out of this error try the followng:

1. git reset --hard HEAD
2. git fetch origin
3. git reset --hard origin

to reset the state, and then you should be able to use git pull as normal.
