Do you guys think that leaving away the submit-button in a search form would be confusing? (http://www.0900alternatief.net/ - the search button is too low, but I am not sure how I should make it prettier. |

Sep 22nd 2011, 11:15 |
DidItAgain |
but what I dont get is, why isnt cake updating the record even though id is set?! |
# |
Sep 22nd 2011, 11:14 |

is there a better way of transporting data between controllers than session->write/read? |
# |
Sep 22nd 2011, 11:13 |
DidItAgain |
I understand in cake conventions are required to make good end results |
# |
Sep 22nd 2011, 11:12 |
fenix` |
yeah thats the format im used to seeing. |
# |

form helper does data[ModelName][field_name] |
# |
Sep 22nd 2011, 11:12 |
fenix` |
ah |
# |
Sep 22nd 2011, 11:11 |
dakota |
fenix`: the form helper does |
# |
Sep 22nd 2011, 11:11 |
dakota |
DidItAgain: and then a simple $this->InstalledBase->save($this->data); is needed |
# |
Sep 22nd 2011, 11:11 |
fenix` |
dakota: does bake do that by default? |
# |
Sep 22nd 2011, 11:11 |
dakota |
DidItAgain: to make it easy you name your post variables "data[server]", "data[vendor]", etc. |
# |
Sep 22nd 2011, 11:10 |
DidItAgain |
makes sense |
# |
Sep 22nd 2011, 11:10 |

DidItAgain: what version of phpcake are you using? |
# |
Sep 22nd 2011, 11:08 |
dakota |
DidItAgain: you should read it |
# |
Sep 22nd 2011, 11:08 |
dakota |
DidItAgain: it's all in the book |

Sep 22nd 2011, 11:08 |

DidItAgain: you should never need $_POST |
# |
Sep 22nd 2011, 11:08 |
dakota |
Well, two choices. Either name your fields properly and access via $this->data, or via $this->params['form'] |
# |
Sep 22nd 2011, 11:08 |
DidItAgain |
that are posted in an AJAX call? |
# |
Sep 22nd 2011, 11:07 |
DidItAgain |
how else do I access post variables? |
# |
Sep 22nd 2011, 11:07 |
dakota |
why are you using $_POST? |
