Using Eric's post, I created a very simple way to get the Auth component to redirect to the referring page no matter what. I think its userful:
<?php class UsersController extends AppController { var $name = "Users"; var $components = array("Auth"); function beforeFilter() { $this->Auth->autoRedirect = false; } function login() { $this->redirect($_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER']); } } On Jul 2, 1:56 pm, Rich <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > that worked perfectly for me. thanks Eric! > > On Jul 2, 12:32 pm, Eric <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > I had a similar problem and here is what I did. > > > 1.
