Bug #5020
SelectViewHelper produces invalid code
100%
Description
The Select View Helper produces invalid code with strange output, if the value of the attribute "options" is empty. This is caused by the lack of at least one OPTION element.
"A SELECT element must contain at least one OPTION element."

What do you suggest as solution?
Always add <option value=""></option> if options array is empty?
I'd prefer to have some prependOptions or appendOptions argument, so you could write
<f:form.select name="paymentOptions" options="{settings.paymentOptions}" prependOptions="{0: ' - choose one - '}" />
What do you think?

To fix the issue one could add one option with "---" as a last resort.

Ok, I'll take care of this. But I'd rather add an empty option (<option></option>) in case the $options array is empty.
Anyways, what do you think about the prependOptions attribute?
