Using Laravel Form class to add the 'disabled' attribute

Question

Using Laravel 4's Form class, we can create a list using

 {{ @Form::select('colors', Colors::all()), $color }}

Question: How can we add the attribute disabled using Blade without having to rewrite the clean Blade syntax into the usual ugly form?

Solution 1

Just add array('disabled') in the end like:

{{ Form::select('colors', Colors::all(), $color, array('disabled')) }}

Solution 2

This should do the work.

 {{ @Form::select('colors', Colors::all()), array(
    'disabled' => 'disabled',
    'class'    => 'myclass'
    ) }}

Solution 3

Though already answered, IMO both answers weren't neutral enough, so to avoid duplicates the arguments are @Form::select('name', $optionsArray, $selectedOption, ['disabled']).

So if you're prepopulating form with @Form::model() you should do @Form::select('name', $optionsArray, null, ['disabled']) - array with 'disabled' has to be 4th parameter.

How do i add it to individual items in the array? I want some headers in the list.
