Hi I am working on implementing file upload functionality in my site, I have a table called users which contains user's login information. I want to have another table my_files with the following fields in which I can store the file uploaded by the user.
`id`, `name`, `created`, `modified' My database.php file has this: <?php class DATABASE_CONFIG { var $default = array('driver' => 'mysql', 'connect' => 'mysql_pconnect', 'host' => 'localhost', 'login' => 'root', 'password' => 'root', 'database' => 'users' ); } ?> I want to know how should I include this new table in my code and use it to save the uploaded file and its information. This is my view file for upload option(upload.ctp): <?php echo $form->create('User', array('action' => 'upload', 'type' => 'file')); echo $form->file('File'); echo $form->submit('Upload'); echo $form->end(); ?> This is my only model file: <?php class User extends AppModel { var $name = 'User'; var $otherDB='my_files'; var $validate = array( 'username' => array( 'rule' => 'isUnique', 'message' => 'Username not available' ), 'password' => array( 'rule' => array('minLength',8), 'message' => 'Minimum length is 8' ), 'email' => array( 'rule' => array('email',true), 'message' => 'Enter valid email address' ) ); } ?> I have nothing for upload in the controller. I have read previous posts about using multiple tables but could really understand because of my limited knowledge in php/cake.
