The ajax helper is deprecated in 2.0. Here's a quick and dirty ajax form submission:
in app_controller->beforeFilter(): if ($this->RequestHandler->isAjax()) { Configure::write('debug', 0); $this->autoRender = false; $this->layout = 'ajax'; } In the <head> section of default layout: <script> var baseUrl = "<?php echo $this->Html->url('/', true); ?>"; </script> At the end of the controller function (after all variables have been set): if ($this->RequestHandler->isAjax()) { $this->render('/elements/[element name]); } At the foot of the form containing the form to submit via ajax (or in an external js file that's called with $this->Html->script): <script> $('#[FORM_NAME]').submit(function() { $.ajax({ type: 'POST', url: baseUrl + '[ROUTE]', - note that baseUrl has a following / so no need to put one in from of [ROUTE] data: $(this).serialize(), dataType: 'html', success: function(data){ $('#[id of receiving content]').fadeOut(100, function() { $(this).html(data).fadeIn(500); }); }, error: function(message){ console.debug(message); } }); return false; }); </script> And that's it!!
