Sorry about that John, I'm not quite with it today ... i'm a bit under the
weather.
This is the part of the view for the search.
$form->input('country', array(
'label' => '',
'type' => 'select',
'empty' => '-- Select --',
'selected' => $this->Session->read('Auth.User.country')
)
)
$ajax->observeField('SearchCountry', array(
'url' => array(
'action' => 'getRegion'
),
'frequency' => 0.1,
'update' => 'displayRegion'
)
)
Upon 'onchange' event the selected country id is passed to the controller
where it queries a new list of regions for that country.
The controller passes the array of regions to a separate view (perhaps could
have done this differently?) where a new select element is populated with
the array of regions.
$form->input('Search.region', array(
'label' => '',
'type' => 'select',
'options' => $region
)
);
The 'region' select element in the search form sits inside a div and is
overwritten by the above element.
The new select element is getting passed into the search form as $this->data
which makes sense but it's also remaining
that way when the form submits.
So now with using GET the form submits as
[minAge] => 31
[maxAge] => 41
[country] => Chile
[data] => Array
(
[Search] => Array
(
[region] => Libertador General Bernardo O'Higgins
)
)
I straightened out the array once the form is received by the
controller but the form has already submitted at that point and it
leaves my url
looking like " country=Chile&data[Search][region]= " on the results
page. I still utilize the data from url on the results page so
data[Search][region]= is throwing it off especially if the user sorts
the data and the url switches back to "region=" as it was originally
intended.
I feel like this didn't help any 8-), let me know if I'm still being too vague.
