I am trying to add a new dropdown menu on the course form where we can create a new course. This drop down menu have the values 'Full Day', 'Half Day' as course type. Created a column in mdl_course table named as course_type of type VARCHAR. Can't manage to modify the form.
i have created an array of choices, following is the code:
$choices = array();
$choices['0'] = 'Full Day';
$choices['1'] = 'Half Day';
$mform->addElement('select','course_type', 'Course Type', $choices);
$mform->addRule('course_type', null, 'client'); $mform->setType('course_type', PARAM_RAW);
I put my code in edit_form.php file. I have also add a text input and store it in moodle database, it works fine but when I create dropdown list its not working. Following is the code for text input that works fine:
$mform->addElement('text','location', 'Location','maxlength="100" size="20"');
$mform->addRule('location', 'Misssing Location', null, 'client');
$mform->setType('location', PARAM_RAW);
Have any one tried this type of customization. Please help on this.
Thanks in advance.

Usman
