Supplying a predefined list of options for an exposed item in a view in Drupal?

问题

I've got a view that filters by year. The year is a normal text CCK field on the content type. I've exposed this field in the view, so that the user can type in a value for it. E.g. 2010. It will then show all the content types with the field set to 2010. My problem is, I don't want the user to type in the value. I want to change that text field to a dropdown with several years.

My options are:

1. Hack it with JQuery --> VERY BAD
2. Edit the exposed value using some hook or something BEFORE it's outputted on the page
3. Any other options?

My question is, how do I do option 2, or worst case, option 3?

When you edit the CCK field in Manage fields, you can set the allowed values for that field. If you do, when you go back into the View, you'll have a new filter, Field - allows values which will give you a select menu of the allowed values when you expose it.

If you don't want to limit the values during creation, you're going to have to alter the exposed form in a custom module:

function mymodule_form_alter(&$form, $form_state, $form_id) {
  if ($form_id === 'views_exposed_form') {
    // Change field_test_value to the name of your field
    $form['field_test_value']['#type'] = 'select';
    $form['field_test_value']['#options'] = array(
      '' => '', 
      '2010' => '2010', 
      '2009' => '2009');
  }
}

See the Form API reference to see what else you can do.
