Allows to populate drop-down, radio- or checkbox list fields, which have been added with
cms:onExtendPageForm event.
Usually you do not need to use this event for fields which represent
data relations. But if you want a standard
field (corresponding an integer-typed database column, for example), to be rendered as a drop-down list, you should
handle this event.
The event handler should accept 2 parameters - the field name and a current field value. If the current
field value is -1, the handler should return an array containing a list of options. If the current
field value is not -1, the handler should return a string (label), corresponding the value.
