[Typo3] $TCA question - default for 'select' type

[Albert van der Veen]

Hello list,

- posted this earlier in the 'dev' list, but this is probably a better place -

I use the static language table in a plugin and would like to have a 
default language selected. But this code (in tca.php) doesn't work:

		"language" => Array (		
			"exclude" => 1,		
			"label" => "LLL:EXT:user_hria/locallang_db.php:user_hria_tools.language",		
			"config" => Array (
				"type" => "select",	
				"foreign_table" => "static_languages",	
				"foreign_table_where" => "ORDER BY static_languages.uid",	
				"size" => 1,	
				"minitems" => 0,
				"maxitems" => 1,
				"default" => "6", // this should set the selector box on language with 
uid = 6
			)
		),


What am I doing wrong?

thanks,
Albert van der Veen
