In Laravel 4.2 I cannot style a dropdown with boostrap - get default style intead

Hi I am trying to make my dropdowns in Laravel look like the rest of the form fields, which are using form-control styles from bootstrap. Here is what I tried. I also tried wrapping the form in a div with the form control class but no luck.

{{ Form::select('company_id', $company_lists, ['class'=>'form-control']) }}

form-control works fine on selects, but not when using the lists as above (ie populating from the database). Any ideas? thank you

Your array containing the class is being passed as the default value for the select. (http://laravel.com/api/4.1/Illuminate/Html/FormBuilder.html#method_select)

Try changing it to:

{{ Form::select('company_id', $company_lists, null, ['class'=>'form-control']) }}
