Re: automagic select boxes for "belongsto" relations

If concatenating or calculating fields etc. you will then need to use
Set::combine to reformat the array so the form helper can use it.

$data = $this->Artist->find(
'all',
array(
'fields' => array(
"concat(Artist.first_name,' ',Artist.last_name) as name"
)
)
);

Would then need the following to set the array in the right format:

$this->set('artists', Set::combine($data, '{n}.Artist.id', '{n}.
0.name'));
