your views are whatever format you want. make them xml instead of html. cake even gives you the tools to know the difference and start the magic |

how do you make the aro reflect the parent_id of a group? |

but in the future we will also create desktop clients that connect to the server |
| # |
Aug 7th 2008, 09:52 |
TommyO |
yes, of course |
| # |
Aug 7th 2008, 09:52 |
Lemon|work |
without modifying core code |
| # |
Aug 7th 2008, 09:51 |
Lemon|work |
but would it be easy |
| # |
Aug 7th 2008, 09:51 |
Lemon|work |
well its always possible |
| # |
Aug 7th 2008, 09:51 |
TommyO |
Lemon|work: are you answering your own question? :) |
| # |
Aug 7th 2008, 09:51 |
Lemon|work |
and i can get all view related stuff from my application remotely |
| # |
Aug 7th 2008, 09:50 |
Lemon|work |
just do all the calls with .xml on the end |
| # |
Aug 7th 2008, 09:50 |
Lemon|work |
lets say you want to create a java based desktop application for your web application |
| # |
Aug 7th 2008, 09:50 |
Lemon|work |
Would it be possible to create "client side views" |
| # |
Aug 7th 2008, 09:50 |
TommyO |
as long as you have the proper security features in place, that is :) |

but that is some predefined values (vars from post/get, ...). You are suggesting that i can use this var to do, for example, $params["my_param"] = 'my_value' and will work. yes? |
| # |
Aug 7th 2008, 09:49 |
TommyO |
yeah. really flexible. and if you give the params names in a url it gives more clues to the user as to what the url means. allowing them to tweak a url to get what they want is imho a great usability feature |

neat |

moelee |
ah k |

Aug 7th 2008, 09:48 |
TommyO |
moelee: cake finds things in the url like param:value and puts them in a 'special place'. this allows for out-of-order param passing, and missing pieces, etc |

Aug 7th 2008, 09:48 |
moelee |
ah |

yes i see it now, i somehow missed this page: http://book.cakephp.org/view/55/the-parameters-attribute-param |
| # |
Aug 7th 2008, 09:47 |
moelee |
i haven't had to deal with multiple params via url passing, but it would be good to know for reference |
| # |
Aug 7th 2008, 09:47 |
TommyO |
Eddie_CRO: a session in http-land is a number of requests and replies between a particular client and the server, $params is defined on a per-request level, not a per-session level |
| # |
Aug 7th 2008, 09:47 |
stevieboy |
nope, it's empty |
| # |
Aug 7th 2008, 09:46 |
moelee |
TommyO can you explain named params |
| # |
Aug 7th 2008, 09:46 |
stevieboy |
i'll try anyway |
| # |
Aug 7th 2008, 09:45 |
TommyO |
at least I don't think so :) |
| # |
Aug 7th 2008, 09:45 |
TommyO |
stevieboy: no |
| # |
Aug 7th 2008, 09:45 |
stevieboy |
as param? |
| # |
Aug 7th 2008, 09:45 |
stevieboy |
can i add it there too? |
| # |
Aug 7th 2008, 09:45 |
stevieboy |
TommyO: i need to use it in the beforefilter |
| # |
Aug 7th 2008, 09:45 |

) |
| # |
Aug 7th 2008, 09:45 |
TommyO |
is a good way |
| # |
Aug 7th 2008, 09:45 |
TommyO |
stevieboy: function action($id = null) { |
| # |
Aug 7th 2008, 09:45 |
Eddie_CRO |
explain. |
| # |
Aug 7th 2008, 09:44 |
TommyO |
ummm... in a request. Session has a specific definition |
| # |
Aug 7th 2008, 09:44 |
stevieboy |
TommyO: well.... so i use the only and right way using $this->params['pass'][0] |
| # |
Aug 7th 2008, 09:44 |
Eddie_CRO |
so i guess $params var is always passed in a session? |
| # |
Aug 7th 2008, 09:43 |
Eddie_CRO |
yes, i noticed it :D |
