One should get in the habit of always using single quotes unless there
is a variable inside that should be parsed (and, if so, it should be
wrapped with { and } to at least make it obvious). Using double quotes
without variables is wasting parse cycles.

Well, if you put double quotes, you then can put variables inside a
string and they will be replaced by proper values.
Single quoted strings are not parsed.
I tend to use single quotes because it is supposedly a bit faster to
process by the PHP parser.

Have you tried this:
echo $form->select('active', array('1' => 'Yes', '2' => 'No'), '1',
array(), false);
This should work for 1.2

Sorry for that, I should have done a cut & paste from my own code. Made
a typo by forgetting to enclose all things re
yes amit i used that syntax originally, but now i want to add those
other options, i.e. I want Yes to be selected by default and I also
dont want any blank fields. This is what I would like to achieve, so i
need to add some more parameters...

- You should use syntax like echo $form->select('active', array(0 => 'Yes',
1 => 'No'));

With Cake 1.2, you should try this :
echo
$form->input("type"=>"select","options"=>array("0"=>"
12 matches
