Introduction and System overview
Hello, I'am started using cake two weeks ago. I'am very happy, that I found a framework which gives me almost the same possibilities as RoR does, and which is, for the first time, easy to use. I'am very familiar to PHP and OOP and I can almost do erverything I like when I want to write a programm. I have so much questions on Cake and didn't find the answers in the manual or in the wiki. Maybe the answers to my questions are very simple, but I can't find any source which shows me how the system works, and where I can put in my code to do something. For example the validation. I have a field 'email' and my model validates this field with the built-in validation in cake. I want that my model only validates the field when it is submited by the form. I found no source which explained how can i do that. To wrap that up, for me, cake is a very good system, and i want to use it. But if there is no good explanation of things which happens during execution, I can not alter the behavior to my needs. Maybe I can help to built up such an Information ressource. It should also explain how the MVC works and how Cake implements the MVC, because I think one of the main reason why people don't use cake, is that they don't know what the MVC-Paradigma is for.

datetime strings and using sanitize-cleanArray()
Hi all, I need to pass a datetime string from a form to be stored on the database as -MM-DD hh:mm:ss (i.e. datetime format in MySQL). I then put code to clean the $this-data array in the app_model to try to setup automatic cleaning of all saved data. What I found was that because cleanArray() cleans everything without mercy, including html encoding on everything, it encoded the hyphens in teh datetime format (not the colons though). The result was that the DB (MySQL 5.something) didnt want to store it. My solution was to hack a bit of code into the app_model to reverse this so that the full sanitize check looks like this: http://www.cakephp.org/pastes/show/eb23edaac3bd13381b467669d2bd291a I am specifically interested in the publishUp and publisDown fields, but an obvious 'to do' is to create an array of fieldnames to do this to. But - does anybody have any better solutions? Thx, ianh --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Cake PHP group.

Re: datetime strings and using sanitize-cleanArray()
I then put code to clean the $this-data array in the app_model to try to setup automatic cleaning of all saved data. What I found was that because cleanArray() cleans everything without mercy, including html encoding on everything, it encoded the hyphens in teh datetime format (not the colons though). Sanitze::cleanArray() uses (among others) Sanitze::html() to do the encoding. Sanitze::html() accepts a second parameter to tell it to strip_tagas() instead of encoding. This is more appropriate in many cases. Unfortunately, by calling cleanArray(), you can't trigger this alternative behaviour. There are other cases where Sanitize::html() encoding can get in your way, i.e. when getting an email address from a form. [EMAIL PROTECTED] will become my#45;[EMAIL PROTECTED] and will consequentely not be considered as a valid Email address when trying to validate it. The sanitze class is great, but could certainly be more flexible. In the meantime, I created a controller-wide method (in app_controller.php) to unhtml() the eunwanted encoding where necessary. Hope this helps :) Heiner The result was that the DB (MySQL 5.something) didnt want to store it.

OK, I am hoping this is my last question, but no promises. :-)
How do I tell a view in my controller to use a different layout.
In my layouts DIR I have default.thtml and secondary.thtml.
What do I put in the controller file to specifiy which layout to use?
you can store choice in a session:

$this-layout = $_SESSION['layout'];

selected items in HABTM multiple select
Is there an elegant way to build the list of selected items to feed the $html-selectTag() in a HABTM relation ??I ended with for instance: $materials_selected_designations = array(); for($i=0; $i sizeof($this-params['data']['Material']); $i++){
$materials_selected_designations[$this-params['data']['Material'][$i]['id']] = $this-params['data']['Material'][$i]['designation'];} $this-set('materials_selected_designations', $materials_selected_designations);
its not very elegant compared to: $this-set('materials_designations',$this-Application-Material-generateList());The manual doesn't say anything on this, and in the wiki there is only something confuse in understanding_associations.
Any thoughts ??olivvv

Integrating Cake phpBB sessions
Hey! I'm having major trouble integrating the sessions between Cake phpBB2. 1) My phpBB2 installation is in /app/webroot/phpBB. 2) The DocumentRoot in httpd.conf is set to /app/webroot. I've tried accessing $_SESSION directly in /phpBB/login.php (ie- when the user logs in successfully, $_SESSION['user_id'] etcetc is set), but, the problem is I'm not able to access these $_SESSION variables from outside phpBB. :( :( If someone else has any idea how this can be achieved, please post! I'm sure it will be helpful to a LOT of people. Thanks in advance! Cheers! --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Cake PHP group.

Re: Switching Layouts
Actually it'd be more like this:
if ($this-Session-check('layout')) {
$this-layout = $this-Session-read('layout');
}
but that's controller code. You should, however, still be able to use
$this-layout in your view templates.

Re: Integrating Cake phpBB sessions
Either make sure you're setting session.auto_start in php.ini, or you're calling session_start( ) before trying to access $_SESSION. Also, Cake will only use $_SESSION to store session data if CAKE_SESSION_SAVE is set to 'php' in app/config/core.php. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Cake PHP group.

You need to have your controller generate the code and hand it to the
view in a variable, using the set() function. In your controller, do
something like this:
$this-set('code', $this-Lavoro-getLavoro());
And in your view, do:
?php echo $code; ?

Re: associations: SELECTs correctly but doesn't UPDATE
Grant Cox wrote: What you are doing (the commented out line) is a good way to do it.[...] Great. I just wanted to make sure I wasn't doing something wrong. The only thing to improve it would be to manually run the Judge-validates($this-data) and User-validates($this-data), before attempting to save. Otherwise the Judge may be updated, even when the User has validation errors. Yes, you've read my mind (retroactively, sort of). I discovered that one model can indeed get updated even when the other doenn't validate, and have been playing with ways to avoid that. Thanks very much for helping me with this. Odd thing to me is, why does cake SELECT from all both joined tables when you findAll(), but not UPDATE them when you save(). --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Cake PHP group.

Validator and scaffolding
Hello!
I have read in a post about the Validator script at
http://www.webtest.wvu.edu/users/cbscharf/validator/, and given that I
had some problems with the wiki's advanced validation w/ params
(http://wiki.cakephp.org/tutorials:advanced_validation:advance_validation_with_parameters),
I thought to give it a try.
Given that I think that the method suggested at Validator's site
corrupts the MVC framework, I choose a different approach.
I did as follows:
(0.5 took a bottle of milk)
1. added it under app/controllers/components/validator.php
(1.5 added some sugar and flour to it)
2. then wrote my own my_validator.php component which does a
require_once(app/controllers/components/validator.php) and initializes
the main class, adds custom validation methods, etc
the __construct method is:
function __construct($obj, $data){
if(is_object($obj))
$this-obj = $obj;
parent::__construct($obj, $obj-validate, $data[$obj-name]);
}
(3.5 put it in the owen)
3. finally I rewrote the validates function in app_model.php to use the
MyValidator class
my new validates method is:
function validates($data=array()){
if ( empty($data) ) {
$data = $this-data;
}
$v = new MyValidator($this, $data);
if( is_array($this-filters) )
$this-filter($this-filters, $v);
$this-invalidFields = $v-_validation_errors;
return $v-validates();
}
(4.5 but don't know when to take it off?! :) )
I think it should work now, but it does not. At least not with
scaffolding, because when I save a data it runs the validates method
found in cake/libs/model_php5.php. I thought to get it overwritten in
app_model.php, or is this because of scaffolding?
Second question: is this a good way to validate all the models? I think
to the parent::__construct($obj, $obj-validate, $data[$obj-name]);
part of my constructor. Will it validate in all of my models if I have
a complex request? (ie: $params['data']['User'] and
$params['data']['Posts'] too get validated?)
any ideas, suggestions?

Character sets
I have posted and readed many times about character encoding. But most
of the times the responses are incomplete and confusing is there a good
tutorial for this.
I have made a simple script with cakephp the index.thtml view is like
this
?
echo Año, canción
?
and the output is:
A?o, canci?n
I was using UTF8 for encoding, then I've changed to ISO-8859-1
adding the following two lines to the (default.thtml, ajax.thtml...etc)
scripts.
?php
mb_http_output('ISO-8859-1');
ob_start('mb_output_handler');
?
and now the outputs are rigth. I can also store and retrive data
correctly from the databse with cakephp. But there is only one problem
when I use the ajax autocomplete it still uses UTF8 for encoding my
query string to the database and I can't make querys with characters
like (Ñ,ñ..etc). Can someone give a GOOD explenantion about character
encoding.

Re: Character sets
How about this, If the encoding for your files == charset meta tag in html == database encoding Then you won't get any pr?blems. If you are not using UTF-8 you will get pr?blems with AJAX updates if you use UTF-8 database connection you need to execute set names 'UTF8' as your first mysql command Most people miss/don't know that they need to change the encoding for the files themselves. If you get the text being output you have BOMs at the beginning of your files which you need to remove Therefore to avoid all pr?blems: Put EVERYTHING as UTF-8 google set names 'UTF8' cakephp and put in place a fix* Configure your editor to use UTF-8 charset and don't add BOMs And you don't get any more problems. HTH AD7six * for v1.2 of cake adding encoding=UTF8 to your database connection parameters takes care of this. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Cake PHP group.

Re: Character sets
Hi, Firstly, ISO8859-1 (or Latin-1) has rather limited character set[1] and you should consider sticking with Unicode (in your case UTF-8) Can someone give a GOOD explenantion about character encoding. The eminent Joel Spolsky gives an excellent guide[1] to character encodings from the programmers point of view. Everyone reading this post should read this. With regard to your problem the W3[2] say: It is very important that the character encoding of any XML or (X)HTML document is clearly labeled, so that clients can easily map these encodings to Unicode. (Source: [2]) So, can you first check whether your view that houses the input element which will be autocompleted contains the magic: meta http-equiv=Content-Type content=text/html;charset=utf-8 / in the head section?

Will Sanitize-cleanArray protect against XSS attacks?
I've been reading about all types of security vulnerabilities common in online applications, and realized that my application had some rather large XSS holes. I found that using the Sanitize function 'cleanArray' did a nice job in removing all? of the vulnerabilities, but I am curious whether it is safe to rely on cleanArray 100%. I looked at what cleanArray actually did, and noticed it called the Sanitize-html function. Looking at the contents of the html function, it seems like Sanitizes uses a simple 'find and replace' routine -- it looks for certain characters, like '' and '', then escapes them appropriately. HOWEVER, one of the hallmarks of XSS attacks is getting around simple filtering routines by using other character sets -- so for instance, if I were able to some how find a character that did not look like a '' but was interpreted as such, I don't know if cleanArray would catch it. The html function : http://api.cakephp.org/sanitize_8php-source.html#l00081 I'm hoping that someone more familiar with XSS attacks, and Cake in general, might be able to give me some insight into whether or not we can rely on cleanArray to Sanitize data that could potentially lead to XSS attacks. Would it make more sense to use something like the PHP function 'htmlentities', which allows you to specify a charset as an argument? Is it possible that Cake takes care of this problem behind the scenes?

ACL and Multiple Groups
I was looking throught the ACL documentation and became very interested in using it. My question is as follows: Is there a way for a user to be part of multiple groups? for example, if i have a user named john, i want him to be in both the UsersA and UsersB group. PageA which allows UsersA should allow john in. what would happen if UsersB is denied from PageA and john tried accessing it? would it act like windows? my understanding of windows is, a deny is teh most powerfull. ie, if one permission says you are denied, the even if another says you are permitted you are still denied. thank you etaham --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Cake PHP group.

Re: ACL and Multiple Groups
Is there a way for a user to be part of multiple groups? Yes and no. ARO's and ACO's are organized in a tree-based fashion, so if a node is a child of another node, it inherits that node's permissions as well as the permissions of any node which the parent node is a child of. However, the concept of a node being the child of more than one parent does not exist within the system. my understanding of windows is, a deny is teh most powerfull. ie, if one permission says you are denied, the even if another says you are permitted you are still denied. That sounds like a very inflexible system. Cake's ACL system works off of a similar 'default deny' premise, but it allows you to, for example, deny permissions on an object to a group, but allow permissions on an object to a specific user in a group. By default, users will inherit the permissions settings of their parent node, but you can override any setting at any level. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Cake PHP group.

Associated Model SELECT statements
A voting system: Model Ballot: hasMany Options,Votes Model Option: belongsTo Ballot Model Vote: belongsTo Ballot Model User: hasMany Votes ^^Im sort of new to MVC, hopefully those associations are OK! Now: some controller code for viewing a ballot: I tried: $this-Ballot-id = $someID $this-Ballot-Options-findAll(); I thought that since Ballot is associated with many options: WHERE `ballot_id` = `Ballot`.`id` that Options-findAll() would only return an array of Options belonging to that Ballot, but actually that call is retrieving ALL rows in the options table right now, I'm using $this-Ballot-Options-findAll(ballot_id=$someID); Am I doing this correctly? Is there any simpler way to get the result I want? --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Cake PHP group.

Re: Associated Model SELECT statements
Oh yea, one more question When I do $this-Ballot-id = $someID; $this-Ballot-read(); I get a huge array with ['Ballot'], ['Options'], and Say I wanted to return only the (['Ballot'] and ['Options']) or (['Ballot'] and ['Votes']), Is there a method/way that will return selective associations in that way? Or, I guess again I'll resort to a custom query... --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Cake PHP group.

Re: Associated Model SELECT statements
Regarding your section question, and pulling only certain
information...
Check out:
http://api.cakephp.org/class_model.html#c2d8fb14f5398c85452d978bd013436f,
which is the API page for FindAll(). One of the parameters is
'fields', where you can specify fields returned. I'm not certain, but
you might be able to specify something like:
array('ballots.*', 'options.*')
Again, I'm not sure on that, but it might help.
Also in your first question, you wrote:
$this-Ballot-Options-findAll(ballot_id=$someID); .
You could also write that as $this-Ballot-Options-findById($someID).
The result would be the same, but it looks a little better IMO.

Re: Associated Model SELECT statements

That doesn't work. I think that's for returing one field from the model
that the controller is associated with. I want something very similar
by to get a particular from a associated Model, not a particular field.
Also in your first question, you wrote:
$this-Ballot-Options-findAll(ballot_id=$someID); .
You could also write that as $this-Ballot-Options-findById($someID).

The result is not the same. findById is will find a Option with that
ID,
where Option.id = $someBallotID (which is comparing the worng
IDs)
my query was lo
where Option.ballot_id = $someBallotID

Re: AJAX Autocomplete silently failing
Hey Nate - when I pass in minChar, it adds it to the text field and not
the Ajax call:
echo
$ajax-autocomplete('Entity/name','/entities',array('size'='40','minChar'='4'))
produces:
input name=data[Entity][name] size=40 minChar=4 id=EntityName
autocomplete=off value= type=text /
div id=EntityName_autoComplete class=auto_complete/div
script type=text/javascriptnew Ajax.Autocompleter('EntityName',
'EntityName_autoComplete', '/ivsCake/entities', {});/script
Could the AJAX helper be modified to account for the minChar parameter?
Thanks for the outstanding effort in this project!

Re: AJAX Autocomplete silently failing
Sorry, it should actually be 'minChars', not 'minChar'.

Re: I don't want to associations in every queries, how?
Could you be more specific when you say... 'You don't need to use it every time?' Are you saying you don't want the query to run everytime?

Re: AJAX Autocomplete silently failing
Thanks Nate - that was it - the thing works brilliantly now. And now for something completely different: I used CSS to set a max-height and overflow:auto for the returned list, so if the results are lengthy, I get a scrollable list. Of course, IE (pre-7) does not recognize max-height but that's another story. My solution works perfectly in Firefox, but in IE, if you click the scrollbar to scroll through the list, the list disappears! You can use the mouse's scroll wheel, but not the scrollbar itself. example here: http://www.ultimediaintl.com/ivsCake/entities (search with Arizona (minChars = 4)) I know this has nothing to do with the Cake framework, but if anyone knows a work-around, I'd be truly obliged...

ajax-link -- unable to get it working
Hello all,
I am trying to update the content of a div (details) based on the
article title that was clicked. Below is my code for the view
(test.thtml) and the generated code. The problem is that when I click
on article title, nothing happens. Even the controller function
specified in the ajax-link never gets called. One specific thing that
is bothering me is the event onClick for the link is returning false.
Is that normal ?
regards
=== test.thml =
?php
foreach($articles as $index){
$article = $index['Article'];
?
div class=record

?php echo $ajax-link($article['title'],

$article['id'], array('update' = 'details')); ?
