[TYPO3-dev] Populating form select options in fluid

[Sebastian Fischer]

Hi Heinz,

did you try to use an associated array?

$options = array();
$options['foo'] = 'bar';
$this->view->assign('options', $options);

I think the select vierhelper needs to have value and label to render it.

Greetings
Sebastian
