How to give default value like ----select id----- in this drop down..?

PHP

<?php $id = 'id="memberId"'; echo form_dropdown('member_id', $member_id, set_value('member_id'), $id);?>

you would have to check the documentation for form_dropdown() for that.

ask the one who wrote that function.

The proper term for what you are calling “default value” is “selected”

<!-- The second value will be selected initially -->
<select name="select">
  <option value="value1">Value 1</option> 
  <option value="value2" selected>Value 2</option>
  <option value="value3">Value 3</option>
</select>

Are you using CodeIgniter here? That looks like the syntax from the form helper. If that’s the case, the third parameter is the default value.

8

maybe you are just mistaking “default” with “dummy” value? so you only need to array_unshift($member_id, 'foobar');
