Hi there, I have a dropdown list that defaults to sort by value. How do I change this to sort by label?
Example code:
Thanks
Example code:
<?php
$schema = loadSchema('product_database');
$fieldSchema = $schema['category'];
$fieldOptions = getListOptionsFromSchema($fieldSchema);
foreach ($fieldOptions as $valueAndLabel) {
list($value,$label) = $valueAndLabel;
$encodedValue = htmlspecialchars($value);
$encodedLabel = htmlspecialchars($label);
print "<option value=\"$encodedValue\">$encodedLabel</option>\n";
}
?>
Thanks

Hi,
The function getListOptions() returns an array where the index is the option value, and the value is the option label. Once you have this, you can use the PHP function asort() to sort the array and output.
for example:
Hope this helps

<?php endforeach ?>
Hope this helps
