Using CakePHP's Form helper to generate a drop down list and add a custom class

Question

I'm trying to generate an HTML select element for filtering purposes on my CakePHP 2.2 website.

Here's the code I run in my View:

echo $this->Form->input('proveedor_id', array(
    'type' => 'select', 
    'options' => $proveedores,
    'div' => array('class' => 'asd')
));

However the generated select element does not have the class I want asd.

Any suggestions?

You are putting the class on the div. If you want the class on the select it is

echo $this->Form->input('proveedor_id', array(
    'type' => 'select', 
    'options' => $proveedores,
    'class' => 'asd'
));
