Better to use component
Better to use component -
e.g.
class UtilityHtml extends CApplicationComponent { public function getMonthsArray() { //your code here //your code here return value; } public function getDaysArray() { //your code here //your code here return value; } }Need to set it up in config/main.php:
'components' => array( 'myUtils' => array( 'class' => 'ext.components.UtilityHtml', ),So now you can use like this:
<?php echo CHtml::dropDownList('VkUsers[month]', '', Yii::app()->UtilityHtml->getMonthsArray());?>According to this - http://www.yiiframework.com/wiki/727/updated-how-to-create-call-custom-global-function-in-whole-application/#c17607
