Hello Luigi, I would do it the following way: In your controller parse your array and create a new one which contains teh desired values. Pass this array via $this->set on to the view.
Maybe there is a more elegant way to do it, but this is how I do it. anja -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: [email protected] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Im Auftrag von luigi7up Gesendet: Mittwoch, 19.

I have following data in array $product that is available in my view Array ( [Product] => Array ( [id] => 1 [product_category_id] => 1 [user_id] => 26 [title] => Nije Vuk Ovca [folder] => nije_vuk_ovca [price] => 85 [special] => 0 [published] => 1 [created] => [modified] => 2008-11-07 11:56:06 ) [ProductVariant] => Array ( [0] => Array ( [id] => 1 [product_id] => 1 [sex] => male [size] => S [extras] => [price] => ) [1] => Array ( [id] => 2 [product_id] => 1 [sex] => male [size] => M [extras] => [price] => ) [2] => Array ( [id] => 3 [product_id] => 1 [sex] => male [size] => L [extras] => [price] => ) ) **** As you can see Product has it's variants because PRODUCT model hasMany PRODUCT_VARIANTS. In my product view I want drop down menu (SELECT) with all variants of product to be populated in following way: <select name="xxx" action="yyy"> <option value="product_variant_id">sex | size - price</option> </select> What I was able to do is echo $form->select("variant",$product[ProductVariant]); but this populates dropDown with every table attribut in its own <OPTION> field. I would like something like this: form->select("variant",$product[ProductVariant][size]); but with few more attributes (size + sex + price). Hope I was clear enough what I want to do...
