On successful login, Auth Component does a redirect to either: 1. where you were before you were redirected to the login screen (not in your case I guess) 2. whatever default you have set 3. the website index page. (I think that is the correct order)
I guess your problem is that your ajax call does not follow the redirect and loads the resulting page. I don't use ajax enough to be sure of that or what can be done about it. What you can do is to turn off the auto redirect for Auth and yourself check if the login was a success and if that success was due to an ajax call. Use the RequestHandler to check for ajax. /Martin On Sep 9, 5:45 am, "young.steveo" <young.ste...@gmail.com> wrote: > I've posted this elsewhere on the internets, and finally I'm bringing > it to you guys. > > Just started using cake and it's fantastic!
