Ruby on Rails: collection_select

    I have the below in a view and it displays the drop-down menu correctly.
    <%= collection_select :user, :organisation_id, @all_organisations, :id, :name %>

    I want to determine what value is currently selected and use it in the view to create a link.
    So I think I'm looking for some way to address the selection and find it's current value.
    I've tried using its name and id (user[organisation_id], user_organisation_id) but to no avail. Rails complains about an undefined local variable or method in both cases.

    Any ideas?
