Hi, I have a doubt.

I have a model A that belongs_to a model B.

When I'm creating a new A record, I use the fieldset class to build the form, but I don't know if there is a way to add the relation to the fieldset.

Ex: A select field with all the B records in the A fieldset form.

Not automatically.

You will have to define the form field type in the model properties as 'select', and then populate the form field options with the correct key/value pairs.

This is an example:

$form->field('chairman_id')->set_options(\DB::select('id', array(\DB::expr('CONCAT(surname,", ",initials," ",prefix)'), 'name'))->from('people')->where('type', '=', 'E')->order_by('name', 'ASC')->execute()->as_array('id', 'name'));

Which will create an array with 'id' => 'name' and assigns it to the select.

hmm, ok. Thanks.

It's working now.
