How can I make a list of all users (names) who belong to a specific group?

Specifically, I want to create a select form field with all users of a group listed - and I'm thinking it might make sense to have the names listed, but the values be the userid.

Thanks... but I don't think that's quite what I'm looking for - it looks to me like the link you provided deals with getting all the groups of a specific user, whereas I need to know how to get all the users for a specific group.

I did figure out that I can get the list I need this way:
Code:
jimport( 'joomla.access.access' );
$coaches = JAccess::getUsersByGroup(9);


But, I don't know how to go from that to getting a list of names of those users (it seems to just get the ids)... and then to be able to list the names as select field options (with ids as the field values).

Use load in a loop.

Okay, thanks... so, when I tried 'load' I got an error (it appears to be because I'm doing this as php and javascript files loaded into Joomla pages via the Jumi component, but I'm not sure)... but that lead me to this:

Code:
jimport( 'joomla.access.access' );
$coaches = JAccess::getUsersByGroup(9);
jimport( 'joomla.user.user' );
foreach($coaches as $coaches){
$coach[$coaches] =& JFactory::getUser($coaches);
}


...and then...

Code:
<label>Coach:</label>
<select name="coachId">
<?php foreach($coach as $coach){ ?>
<option value="<?php echo $coach->id; ?>"><?php echo $coach->name; ?></option>
<?php } ?>
</select>


It appears to be working! (Well, at least I've got the select pulldown... we'll see if I can take it the next step to get the data I want from this later in the process of my 'app'.)

Thanks for your help!
