I believe it's 'empty => 'Select your State'. If the param is false, null,
or the empty string, Cake outputs an empty option.

Use array_unshift( $states, $selected) to insert an element at the
beginning of the $states array.
Enjoy,

RE: showEmpty?

2009-10-04 Thread Dave Maharaj :: WidePixels.com

I had a same / similar question for input selects which is related to this.

I have my echo $form->input('State'); which is populated by a find list...so
I have all my States. How can I add so first option to be "Select your
State" with no value? Right now Alabama shows up first and if a user does
not select a State Alabama is automatically saved.

$selected = array('option' => 'Select your State', 'value' => '0')?

Thanks,

Dave

You should only be using input().

echo $form->input('State', array('options' => array('NJ' => New Jersey',
'NY' => 'New York'), 'empty' => false));

Jersey', 'NY' => 'New

The function's arguments are:

select($fieldName, $options = array(), $selected = null, $attributes =
array(), $showEmpty = '')

You only supplied the first and second arguments so if you want to
keep the defaults for the rest except for $showEmpty, you'd need to do
something like the following:

echo $form->select('State', array('NJ' => 'New Jersey', 'NY' => 'New
York'), null, array(), false)

(notice I kept the defaults "null" and "array()" for the arguments
between $options and $showEmpty)
