CakePHP 1.3 - Add extra attributes to select menu options - cakephp

Question

How can I add additional attributes to my select menu option tags? Like this:
<select class="test" name="data[Test][test]">
<option value="1" data-price="100">My Option</option>
</select>
How do I add the data-price="100" ?
I tried something like this but it didn't work:
<?php
echo $this->Form->select('test', $options, null, array(
'class' => 'test',
'options' => array(
'data-price' => 100
)
));
?>

'options' => array(
1=>array(

);

Answer 3

You can do it this way:
$options = array(
...
array('name' => 'United states', 'value' => 'USA', 'title' => 'the title that you want', 'class' => 'something'),
array('name' => 'USA', 'value' => 'USA', 'title' => 'the other title that you want', 'class' => 'otherthing'),
);
echo $this->Form->input('test', array('type'=>'select', 'options'=>$options));

Answer 5

In cakephp 4
look for documentation
Controller
$countries = $this->Countries->find('all')->where([
'active' => 1
]);
$options = $examples->map(function ($value, $key) {
return [
'value' => $value->id,
'text' => $value->name,
'data-flag' => $value->iso_code
];
});
In view/template
<?= $this->Form->control('country_residence_id', [
'label' => false,
'options' => $countries,
'class' => 'form-control select2-flag-search',
'data-placeholde' => __('Select Country')
]) ?>
