Thanks for the quick reply I have a text box which contains the post id and a edit form in the <div id="edit"> below
<?php echo $ajax->form(array('action'=>$html->url('ajaxedit/')))?> <?php echo $html->input('Post/id') ?> <?php echo $ajax->submit('Load Phone', array('url' => 'ajaxedit/','update'=>'ajaxpost'))?> <div id="ajaxpost"> <?php echo $html->input('Post/name', array('size' => '20'))?> </div> In Controller i Have the ajaxedit method function ajaxedit($id=null){ if(!empty($this->data)){ $this->Post->id = $id; $this->data = $this->Post->read(); print_r($Post); $this->layout = "ajax"; } } But i get only the id in the view after ajax update. Name is empty ? why ? thanks, Varun On Jun 17, 3:39 am, francky06l <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > One more thing, with ajax you very often need to set the parameter > "update" of link, submit, remote_function etc ...
