Suppose you have created a custom attribute in Magento and want to display a dropdown of this attribute on the frontend. It is very easy, just follow the steps given below:
Step 1. Just Copy and Paste the below code where you want to display the dropdown into the layout file(phtml)
<?php
$attributes = Mage::getResourceModel('eav/entity_attribute_collection')
->setCodeFilter('computer_manufacturers') //Attribute Code you can get it from the Magento admin
->getFirstItem();
$attrOptions = $attributes->getSource()->getAllOptions(false);
?>
<select>
<?php foreach($attrOptions as $items): ?>
<option value="<?php echo $items['value']; ?>"><?php echo $items['label']; ?></option>
<?php endforeach; ?>
</select>
It will display all the Computer Manufacturers in dropdown on the frontend.
