Good evening, Rookie developer, in MVC for 6 months, CakePHP for about 1. My current tests with Cake can be seen at: http://174.129.130.149/items
I am experiencing an issue on the drill down. I paste everything into a text doc so I could do a line by line but the issue is eluding me. I can successfully see all items of my table. I can click the link and go from index.ctp to view.ctp. My id passes successfully. No db data shows on view.ctp, but there are no errors. The test var in item 2 below displays. I cast $id as an (int) and did a gettype to test, and it came back as an int. Still no luck? I am assuming I am missing something quite simple, but after three hours of looking at this I obviously do not know what I am looking at. 1. app/Model/Item.php class Item extends AppModel { public $name = 'Item'; } 2. app/Controller/ItemsController.ctp contains the following (index() works like a champ): public function view($id = null) { $this->Item->ItemKey1 = $id; $this->set('item', $this->Item->read()); $this->set('testvar', 'it is set'); } index successfully executes find('all'); 3. app/View/Items/view.ctp contains the line: echo $item['Item'] ['DBField']; and echo $testvar; a. index.ctp does the following: <?php echo $this->Html- >link($item['Item']['ItemDescription'], array('controller' => 'Items', 'action' => 'view', $item['Item']['ItemKey1']) ); ?> the link works and I go to the correct page, I do a view source and everything is there minus any data from the db. I've tried changing item names to upper case, adding an 's', but each changes throws an error. I thought the issue was the id coming in as a string so I cast to an int, still no dice.
