Defining 'htmloptions' In Dropdownlist

Yii 1.1 General Discussion

Hi,

When passing in the $data array to display a dropdownList like so:




$data = array('item1', 'item2', 'item3');

echo $form->dropDownList($model, 'id', $data, array('prompt' => t("- Select an option -")));

I want to be able to set htmlOptions for each individual select item, something like this:




$data = array(

    'item1' => array('htmlOptions' => array('class' => 'red-background')),

    'item2' => array('htmlOptions' => array('class' => 'blue-background')),

);

echo $form->dropDownList($model, 'id', $data, array('prompt' => t("- Select an option -")));

But instead it creates <optgroup> tags.

Is there a way currently to do what I’m doing without extending classes?

Hi,

you can try this code…


 <?php

   echo CHtml::dropDownList($model, 'id', array('select' => '- Select an option -') + CHtml::listData($data));

    ?>

i think it’s work…
