I see the hidden div you mention on all forms, but they are all POST except for the 1 form.
CHANGES TO PUT: <div style="display:none;"> <input type="hidden" value="PUT" name="_method"> <input id="Token722940752" type="hidden" value="44da635a3720f957195b86f2e46cf866a74feeac" name="data[_Token][key]"> </div> ALL OTHER FORMS RENDER AS POST: <div style="display:none;"> <input type="hidden" value="POST" name="_method"> <input id="Token1649076594" type="hidden" value="140e9ab5271895c78762ddbd3e2bf64d5e2fa39d" name="data[_Token][key]"> </div> From: cake-php@googlegroups.com [mailto:cake-php@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Mancho Sent: Monday, May 06, 2013 5:11 PM To: cake-php@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: POST form changes to PUT Dude, checks that cakephp adds hidden input with "_method" name and "PUT" value, and uses this pair name/value for validate. Murgan, Alexis Germán Desarrollador & Diseñador Web: german.murgan.com.ar Email: ger...@murgan.com.ar MSN: ger...@murgan.com.ar Móvil: +5493424663813 2013/5/6 Advantage+ <movepix...@gmail.com> Running into a weird issue where my form as rendered the HTML shows: <form id="EditProfile" class="form-horizontal" accept-charset="utf-8" method="post" action="/manage/profile"> This form is submitted using ajax and the function is used by many forms thru the site: $.ajax({ type: "POST", url: $(sel).attr('action'), data: $(sel).formSerialize(), dataType: 'json', And in the controller I have if($this->request->is('ajax') && ($this->request->is('post')) But it fails on this 1 form because for some reason it is changing to PUT. Are there reason why this would be happening? I looked at a few of my forms using this js function and all of the forms and all are set up the exact same way / Form->helper standard inputs / selects. I even added into the form with issues 'method' => 'POST' (upper and lower) but it still fires off a PUT request. Renders as POST but inspecting the request shows: application/x-www-form-urlencoded _methodPUT Ideas would be welcome. -- Like Us on FaceBook https://www.facebook.com/CakePHP Find us on Twitter http://twitter.com/CakePHP --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "CakePHP" group.
