Form Dropdown From Database Display Error - El Forum - 05-06-2011 [eluser]jvk22[/eluser] I'm using the form helper to populate a drop down, however when I put the database generated array in form_dropdown() it does not display correctly. This is what the drop down looks like and the values are id and name 0 1 USA 1 2 U.K. The actual id should be the value and the actual name should display Current Source: <select name="country"> <optgroup label="0"> <option value="id">2</option> <option value="name">test</option> </optgroup> <optgroup label="1"> <option value="id">1</option> <option value="name">United States</option> </optgroup> </select> What I'm trying to achieve <select name="country> <option name="1>USA</option> <option name="2">U.K.</option> </select> Form Dropdown From Database Display Error - El Forum - 05-08-2011 [eluser]toopay[/eluser] Use foreach statement. And when you post code, please use code tags Code: // Remove any spaces Form Dropdown From Database Display Error - El Forum - 05-09-2011 [eluser]jvk22[/eluser] How exactly would I write the foreach though?
