Laravel Weekly #23 - Quick Tip

laravel-weekly-23-quick-tip.php

<?php

# Create a list with numbers ranging from 10 to 20.
Form::selectRange('number', 10, 20);

# Create a list with years ranging from 1900 to 2000.
Form::selectYear('year', 1900, 2000);

# Creates a list with month names.
Form::selectMonth('month');

Cool snippet =)

Great!

thank you!

What about translations for the months? There is the setlocale() for in PHP, but where to set it correctly?

The month names are generated with the strftime function and should respect the app's locale settings.

You can set the locale in Laravel through the App::setLocale($lang) function. Check the localization docs for more info.

Can anybody explain this to me?

What's the difference between the selectRange & selectYear methods?
