CakePHP 1.2 custom label for form helper input


I am editing views/elements/form_user.ctp and require a custom label for my input, I cannot change the current value from city to say city/town because this value must correspond to the database field.

My code is currently:

 echo $form->input('city'); 

How do I add a custom label to the form helper to display a customised label that doesn't output text as exactly the name of the database field?


Solution

  • echo $form->input('city', array(
      'label' => 'My Label'
    )); 
    

    It's in the docs...
