It does exist in pear/HTML_QuickForm/QuickForm/select.php Please enlighten me, what was PEAR community's view on redundant packages and forks?
Please, look at all the codes and historical packages. This package is a simple select generation class, which has nothing to do with any others packages.
Let me clarify: most of HTML_QuickForm_select's code is the same as old HTML_Select's. HTML_QuickForm_select *can* be used without loading all 70kb of HTML_QuickForm class. While I can see the use for a separate HTML_Select class, this will be a fork with *no* added value. A usage example for HTML_QuickForm showing how to use standalone select will be most welcome, though.
