Question

First, the $questions array:

    Array
    (
        [2] => How much do you like cheese?
        [3] => How much do you like cake?
        [6] => Is this question successfully added?
    )

Here’s how I’m trying to use it in the input:

   <td>
       <?php echo $this->Form->input('question', array(
             'options' => $questions,
             'selected' => $questions[6], 
             'name' => 'data[ResponseActions]['.$responseAction['responses_actions']['id'].'][question_id]')); 
       ?>
   </td>

However, whenever the page is rendered, element 2 is always selected by default. Does anyone know why I’m having this issue?

Answer 1

The selected option expects the key, not the value.

'selected' => 6
