How do I add a "select" input type to a form?
  • JeanAlesiJeanAlesi
    I am enabling a search box, which should search for different things depending on the value of the select box.. So far, my form has these elements:

    class FriendSearchForm extends BaseHorizontalForm {
    public function __construct($tmuser) {
    // create the registration fieldset
    $form = \Fieldset::forge('form', array(
    'error_class' => 'error',
    'field_template' => $this->field_template,
    'form_template' => '{fields}',
    ));

    $form->add(
    'search', 'Search',
    array('type' => 'text', 'class' => 'form-control', 'value' => 'Search')
    )
    ->add_rule('trim')
    ->add_rule('required');
                    $form->add(
                                'submit', 'Submit', array('type' => 'submit', 'class' => 'btn btn-info', 'value' => 'submit')
                    );



    How would I add a select box so that the user can decide whether he wants to search for other users based on id, username, or other...?

    You set the type to "select" instead of "text".

    And you can use ->set_options() to define the option list for the dropdown.
