Re: redirection, rendering, or manually setting a view?
Nice, that makes a lot of sense.
Since I'm writing the error message to the session anyway, there is no
reason to not forward.
I switched my code to:
$this->Session->setFlash('Validation failed.');
$this->redirect('../pages/home');
exit();

IMO that's a bad habit that shouldn't be propogated - the unwary may
think it's an equivalent to using requestAction and will start doing
$this->render('../products/index'); wondering why there are lots of
errors on the page.
A better idea would be to simply redirect - if for whatever reason you
don't want the url to change you could do something like the
following:
//controller code
$this->set('requestUrl','/pages/home');
$this->viewPath = "_generic"; // <- making cake look in the folder /
app/views/_generic
$this->render('pseudo_redirect');
// /app/views/_generic/pseudo_redirect.thtml
requestAction($requestUrl,array('return'); ?>
But again: it would be simpler to just redirect.

Re: redirection, rendering, or manually setting a view?
You can render the home view with
$this->render('../pages/home');
If you would like to set an error message and redirect you can use
$this->Session->setFlash('You ain't no user!');
To display the flash message, you need this line in your layout (or
view)
if($session->check('Message.flash')) $session->flash();

redirection, rendering, or manually setting a view?
Hello,
I've created my default home page (/views/pages/home.thmtl) to include
a login form for my application. This works fine, but if the login
fails, I am unsure how to handle it. I would like to send the user
back to the front page and display an appropriate error message.
Here is my existing logic (mostly from the tutorial):
function login()
{
$this->set('error', false);
if (!empty($this->data))
{
$someone =
$this->User->findByUsername($this->data['User']['username']);
if(!empty($someone['User']['password']) &&
$someone['User']['password'] == md5($this->data['User']['password']))
{
$this->Session->write('User', $someone['User']);
$this->redirect('/ideas');
}
else
{
$this->redirect('/');
}
}
}
So, in the else statement...
Should (Can?) I tell the controller to display the home.thtml view?
Should I redirect with a url param of the error message?
Should I render an action?
Thanks!
