drop down on edit/create

[Aissi17]

Is there an implementation for using a dropdown menu to select a items (foreign key) from another model ?

Hi,
Can you give an example?
I think this already works out of the box.

I have a user table with a foreign key that references another table for companies. When creating a form to add a new user, I want to include a dropdown menu in the "company" input field, which should contain a list of all existing companies. How can I accomplish this?

Isn't that already working out of the box?
Can you share a sample code?

How to apply this out of the box? I am also trying to replace list with drop down for foreign keys in edit mode.

If you have a relationship defined on your model, it will automatically show a list of that model in create/edit page .
I guess you don't have a relationship, right?

Yes, it shows a Listbox, but personally I want to replace it with Dropdown List. Using drop down list is more logical and user friendly in case of foreign keys.
