Laravel is most famous php framework nowadays. It has lot of inbuilt functionalities to develop your application before the deadline.
Suppose if we need to display a select box with 12 months listed the only solution to this is

{{ Form::selectMonth('month') }}

This produces twelve options.as given below

<select name="month">
  <option value="1">January</option>
  <option value="2">February</option>
  <option value="3">March</option>
  <option value="4">April</option>
  <option value="5">May</option>
  <option value="6">June</option>
  <option value="7">July</option>
  <option value="8">August</option>
  <option value="9">September</option>
  <option value="10">October</option>
  <option value="11">November</option>
  <option value="12">December</option>
</select>

It produces the following HTML:

January
February
March
April
May
June
July
August
September
October
November
December

By Using  a second option to specify the default month. A third option will apply additional attributes to the select field.

{{ Form::selectMonth('month', 7, ['class' => 'field']) }}
 This produces the list of months with July selected and the select field has a class attributes.
<select class="field" name="month">
  <option value="1">January</option>
  <option value="2">February</option>
  <option value="3">March</option>
  <option value="4">April</option>
  <option value="5">May</option>
  <option value="6">June</option>
  <option value="7" selected="selected">July</option>
  <option value="8">August</option>
  <option value="9">September</option>

{{ Form::reset('Clear form', ['class' => 'form-button']) }}
