And if you want to make it fancy use <pre class="sh_php">. :) – the “<?php” and “&nbsp” aside – for snippets use “<pre>” to preserve indention and stuff..

class AppHelper extends Helper {
  function beforeRender() {
    if ($this instanceof FormHelper) {
      $this->Html->tags['selectstart'] .= '<option value="">&nbsp;</option>';
    }
  }

I could either overwrite the form.php (bad) or extend FormHelper in order to overwrite input/select (good). The latter would require to add and use a custom form helper, which also means i need to rewrite all views. A task i tried to avoid. So no gain from doing so. I think the above the only way to go if you don't want to touch the baked form views at all. FormHelper extends AppHelper – so that wouldn’t really work.

I believe this belongs to the View. Sorry, as I'm too lazy, no code right now :) But handy anyway, thanks.
