I am developing a module that print select form. So, I am trying to use JHTMLSelect (in /tmpl/default.php), but the system give the follow error:
Fatal error: Class 'JHTMLSelect' not found in...
The code is:
Code: Select all
foreach ($weblinks as $link) :
echo JHTMLSelect::option($link->url, $link->url);
endforeach;
It's seems that this class (JHTMLSelect) doesn't load correctly...
Can Someone Help me? Thank you...

Code: Select all
jimport("joomla.html.html.select");

Code: Select all

}
$html = JHTMLselect::genericlist($options, "name_to_use");
echo $html;
where name_to_use is the name of the select tag...

Now, the question is, do you see why that works?

Yes!
Your solution is construct the array with options firstly and after mount the select (that return html code) and print with echo...
My module is using that now...
