Re: Creating a simple search form

The variable is being destroyed when you redirect. I would change the action to one that finds the data (in your example this is process). Check for $this->data. If it's empty there are no search criteria so redirect to your search page. If it's not empty, do your find and put the results into a variable ($results?). Then have a view called process.ctp (at this point, having a function and view called process sounds wrong - 'results' sounds more intuitive?). In the view, you can pick up your $results and display them.

Creating a simple search form

Hi, I'm new in using cakephp
I'm trying to create a simple search form for user table (namely
people),where I input the id, and then a page displaying the result will
show up...Here's I've come up with:
CREATE TABLE `people` (
`id` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL auto_increment,
`name` varchar(30) NOT NULL,

Re: Sort with random order

jmbenn...@gmail.com (Jon Bennett) — Sat, 20 Mrz. 2010 10:37:45 UT

Yep - each page would be different, rather than the whole set
randomised. A better bet would be to randomly sort a list of ids for
the entire table, then custom paginate that.
You could store this random array of ids in the session, or perhaps
cache the list of ids with a random string which is appended to the

if ($this->params['named']['sort' ] === 'RAND()') { // or any sting you
choose
$this->pagainte['sort'] = 'RAND()';
But unless you've got only 1 page of results I doubt that's really
what you want (hint - click sort*, click page 2, click page 1*. * they
won't be the same and more importantly there will be results you may

I regularly stare at a problem so long that I become code blind and
miss the most obvious things. Just make sure you remember for next
time, and there will be a a next time :)

I would think that this is an issue with the browser cache!

I got this same problem, and after viewing the file directly, I am
extremely disappointed that I had to go through the hassle of filling
my comp with garbage like QuickTime just to have some guy show me how
to update my PATH variable. *facepalm*
Why this isn't on a youtube video is beyond me.

Okay, found the solution, and feel a bit foolish about it :).
I've been searching for answers in .htaccess files, apache conf etc., but
the answer is really simple.
The move command in linux by default does not move the hidden files. I was
using the following commands:
~/webprojects/testcake $ mkdir trunk

Auth component not returning expected array key??

mjgai...@gmail.com (Michael Gaiser) — Sat, 20 Mrz. 2010 04:13:06 UT

So I am currently trying to migrate to Cake 1.3RC2. Everything is going
well, except the array that is being returned when I call
$this->Auth->user(). If I am navigating to my user page, the array key is:
Array ( [User] => Array ( etc..))
But when I am navigating to any of my other pages it comes in as:

redirect to anchor link for form validation

hyperfle...@gmail.com (Johnny Ferguson) — Sat, 20 Mrz. 2010 03:45:48 UT

Hi,
I've successfully set up a contact form in cakePHP, and when
validation rules in my model don't pass, the form is reloaded with all
my validation errors displayed properly. That battle was won :)
Now for the tricky part.
Can anyone think of a way to not only have the form page reload with
error messages, but jump to an anchor link at the top of the form if

I said cache is messing up but not 100% sure but it's obvious that
cookie's info is not update unless page is refreshed
How can I get right cookie info without refreshing page after user update
shopping cart or their billing info.

Re: Cake-Shell and Components

mdc...@gmail.com (LunarDraco) — Fri, 19 Mrz. 2010 20:39:00 UT

This is how I have done it as well. The difference between the Shell
and the cake website is the Shell loads pretty much nothing for you.
The Cake Magic is fairly week at the shell level. I don't think that
is a bad thing, but you do have to load up and build bind your objects
using standard php techniques.
