Ricardo AstudilloHi Friends, This tutorial may be help us create the custom drop-down menu using CHtml::dropDownList
1) first create/copy the drop-down menu in your _form.php file
<div class="control-group">
<label class="control-label"><?php echo $form->labelEx($model,'dob'); ?></label>
<div class="controls">
<?php echo CHtml::dropDownList('VkUsers[month]', '', UtilityHtml::getMonthsArray());?>
<?php echo CHtml::dropDownList('VkUsers[day]', '', UtilityHtml::getDaysArray());?>
<?php echo CHtml::dropDownList('VkUsers[year]', '', UtilityHtml::getYearsArray());?>
</div>
</div>
2) Create the UtilityHtml.php file on componets folder which is include a all html file function
/**
* @Method : Dynemic Month
* @Params :
* @author : Ankit Modi
* @created : JULY 11 2014
* @Modified by :
* @modified :
* @Comment : Dynemic Month
*/
public static function getMonthsArray()
{
for($monthNum = 1; $monthNum <= 12; $monthNum++){
$months[$monthNum] = date('F', mktime(0, 0, 0, $monthNum, 1));
}
return array(0 => 'Month:') + $months;
}
/**
* @Method : Dynemic Days
* @Params :
* @author : Ankit Modi
* @created : JULY 11 2014

*/
public static function getDaysArray()
{
for($dayNum = 1; $dayNum <= 31; $dayNum++){
$days[$dayNum] = $dayNum;
}
return array(0 => 'Day:') + $days;
}
/**

*/
public static function getYearsArray()
{
$thisYear = date('Y', time());
for($yearNum = $thisYear; $yearNum >= 1920; $yearNum--){
$years[$yearNum] = $yearNum;
}
return array(0 => 'Year:') + $years;

Better to use component
Better to use component -
e.g.
class UtilityHtml extends CApplicationComponent { public function getMonthsArray() { //your code here //your code here return value; } public function getDaysArray() { //your code here //your code here return value; } }Need to set it up in config/main.php:
'components' => array( 'myUtils' => array( 'class' => 'ext.components.UtilityHtml', ),So now you can use like this:
<?php echo CHtml::dropDownList('VkUsers[month]', '', Yii::app()->UtilityHtml->getMonthsArray());?>According to this - http://www.yiiframework.com/wiki/727/updated-how-to-create-call-custom-global-function-in-whole-application/#c17607
