I needed to have a table holding all my picklists, to make them easier to edit and manage. It’s a large application so there will be lots of drop downs and radio buttons, states and status fields.

It’s Cake!
I wanted to present a range of choices in a nicely formatted table and couldn’t see helper to do the job – so this is my first snippet for Cake PHP. I doubt it’s perfectly cake (for instance I do the header row myself rather than using the html helper, and I concatenate a string rather than building an array)
In this instance I added the function radioTable to a helper called “fed” and gave it the standard model and field variables.
