I want to get value from a table to be populated in drop down select in a
form. Here's the table and the fields for example:
States
fields:id, name
In add function in StatesController, I add this piece of code (as I learnt
from the tutorial):
$state = $this->State->find('list');
$this->set('states',$state);
and I add this code in my view:
echo $form->select('state', array($states));
when I debug the value of state drop down select, what I get is the id of
state, not the name...what I want is the name, not the id..How can I do that
?
Any help would be appreciated..
Thanks...
