Multiple login system
Hi, I am working on a site and want to implement two types of users with different logins like: http://www.naukri.com/ 1. User Login 2. Business Login Should I use Auth using ACL? Also, please suggest if you have better solution for this ? Thanks --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups CakePHP group.

htaccess problems.
I'm finding problems with what I believe is with .htaccess in the cake_install_directory. My current web server only allows the /html directory as a HTML root. To reduce complexity, I thought it would be good to start with untaring the CakePHP in that directory. so my directory appears something like this /html /cake1.2 /app /cake /docs /vendors /foobar I've noticed in the past if I wanted to look at an html file in foobar I had to use http://www.example.com/foobar So I'm at step 4 in the documentation. I've confirmed with the web server that has AllowOverride is set to All. It seems that I can't do http://www.example.com/cake1.2 http://www.example.com/cake1.2/index.php or even http://www.example.com/cake1.2/foo.html The foo.html is just a hello world html file. What I found is if I remove the .htaccess file I get a nice CakePHP link telling my salt needs to be updated and that theres no connection to DB. So I went farther in the tutorial, I successfully linked DB changed salt word. Checked the http://www.example.com/cake1.2 and everything looks fine, including DB is connected and no salt warning. I did do a google search both here and the internet. I did find something about adding a Rewritebase line to all 3 .htaccess, but not sure if I did that correctly. When I changed that, it seemed to just go to a blank webpage. No errors or anything. So my questions are if the .htaccess is necessary? good practice? --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups CakePHP group.

An OO question
Hi all,
I am finding difficult to understand why this isn't working...
?php
abstract class A {
protected static $property = false; # Q1
public static function method() { # Q2
return self::$property;
}
}
class B extends A {
protected static $property = true; # Q1
}
var_dump(B::method());
It prints False and I expect it to be True...
Q1. Does B::$property suppose to overwrite B::$property?
Q2. when B::method() is called, shouldn't it return B::$property (even
though the method is declared in A)?
Q3. Anyways to change the code to work as my expectation?
Thanks in advance

Re: htaccess problems.
Hi there, Can you please share your modified .htaccess file that you have inside your cake1.2 directory? I guess you have other .htaccess files inside your root or html directory? Can you tell us what's written inside those as well? So my questions are if the .htaccess is necessary? good practice? .htaccess is necessary for pretty URLs and is certainly a good thing to have :) You can though setup your cake to not to use .htaccess. Also please check if apache rewrite module is turned on in your web server. Thanks.

Re: Admin + Members suggested setup??
I've created some sites with multiple admin routes (i.e. members and admin) although only in 1.1 - there is an article about it in the bakery: http://bakery.cakephp.org/articles/view/using-cake_admin-for-multiple-user-types - it works very well. I seem to remember reading that this is built in in 1.2, but haven't tried this out yet - I imagine you would just specify an array of possible routes in /config/core.php, but I could be wrong - although it would be easy to find out... Personally I would see it as working in a complementary with permissions systems (ACL) so for instance you might specify a group with access to the admin methods, a group with access to members methods and then the methods that represent your public facing (and authentication free) site. So in a way it a just about keeping things nice and tidy. Use Auth to take care of a user login, but it is up to you to decide where to let somebody go once they have logged in - I would say that is what ACL is for. Maybe it is more an issue of philosophy - you need to find a way of working and structuring things that is good for you - even within the constraints of Cake there are often many ways of doing things.

Re: Admin + Members suggested setup??
Admin routing as more useful in a CMS-style site where there are clearly two distinct areas display of site data, and administering site data, which both could differ greatly in controller view code, rather than just acl permissions. Hope that clears things up.

Re: Admin + Members suggested setup??
Admin routing and ACL are two different things, admin routing is just
a quick way to have some action not accessible from everybody with a
few efforts.
And from what i know (but it should be cheched) at least in Cake 1.2
there's
also the availability of some super_admin methods.
Anyway a nice advantage in using admin routing, in respect of making
your own
checks, is that you can do ONCE in the before_filter action of the
AppController
(the controller from which every other controller inherits) the check,
and
you have to check only one param of the request: 'admin'.
Here an example:
class AppController extends Controller{
.
function beforeFilter() {
// if admin pages are being requested
if(isset($this-params['admin'])){
if (!$this-Session-check('User')) {
// set flash message and redirect
$this-Session-setFlash('You need to be logged in to
access this area');
$this-redirect('/users/login/?redir='.$this-params['url']
['url'],true);
}
}
//If already logged in change the layout to admin
$this-layout='admin_theme';
}
.
}
Of course this method can be used only for simple and small
applications,
if you need more complex authentication and authorization, you should
consider
using Auth and ACL components.
Bye,
Andrea

Position of label on checkbox inputs
Hi,
Is there a reason $out is appended to the end in form-input when
$type is set to checkbox? This behaviour is different to all the other
types which place label before the input and is causing me issues with
my layout. I can fix this by moving the out variable between $before
and the checkbox but i don't want to do this if $out is at the end by
design and this will break something. I have had no issues so far but
this may break somethign i have not come across yet.
I am using version 1.2.0.7296 RC2
Thanks,
Tom

Translation and placeholders
Hi everybody,
I need a hint how I get my variables into a translateed string.
E.g. (you surely know that one *g*)
'Page %page% of %pages%, showing %current% records out of %count% total,
starting on record %start%, ending on %end%'
Where do %page% etc come from?
I have several strings like that:
$this-Session-setFlash(__('This image %name% already exists.', true));
So how can I get my variable in this string?
Thanks a lot in advance!

Hi,
What I have:
function logout()
{
// Redirect users to this action if they click on a Logout
button.
// All we need to do here is trash the session information:
$this-Session-delete('User');
// And we should probably forward them somewhere, too...
$this-redirect('/users/login');
}
So you can choose your favourite forwanrd and you should be happy.

Re: Position of label on checkbox inputs
It is common practice to have labels for most form elements before
(above or to the left of) the element itself, except for radio buttons
and checkboxes, where the norm is for the label to be on the right.
[x] Bacon
[x] Eggs
[x] Sausages
easier to read than
Bacon [x]
Eggs [x]
Sausages [x]
I've never had a problem styling forms with the standard form helper
methods.
(On an unrelated note, are there any collections of CSS files for
cakephp forms? Might be a handy resource to create one. The bakery
style is ok, but a drop-in solution for columnar forms that work
directly with the form helper would be cool. A sort of CSS Cake
Garden if you will.)

my layout. I can fix this by moving the out variable between $before
and the checkbox but i don't want to do this if $out is at the end by
design and this will break something. I have had no issues so far but
this may break somethign i have not come across yet.
I am using version 1.2.0.7296 RC2
Thanks,
Tom

Re: Question about Data Sanitation in CAKEPHP
If I would sanitaze my input from javascript code? No, you need to escape whenever you send dynamic content to de user (though the form helper will escape the inputs values), use the builtin h() function. echo h($comment['Comment']['content']); If you want to strip the tags or other bad content and avoid it from beign stored (they will be escaped by the dbo layer but will get inserted in the db anyway) you need to use Sanitize::clean() or Sanitize::stripWhat() where what is any of Tags, Images, Scripts, Whitespace, All.

Re: Fatal error Call to undefined method Controller Html()
Helpers are not meant to be used in a controller, they are used in
your views/layouts/elements.
Could it be that you also have a component called Captcha? If you do,
that's the reason why $this-Captcha-show(); doesn't crash, but $this-
Html('title' , ''); does.

The Cake way of doing this? Multiple models accessing a huge dataset
I am wondering did i chose the Cake way of doing things with this, or atleast close :) We have multiple models, all of which access same set of tables handling massive amounts of data, searched using fulltext indexes. There's additions, searches, modifies etc. from 2 different models, ah but there's a gotcha! Most of these searches are slightly different, along with some of the inserts. So what i opted to do about handling this dataset is build an component used by the controllers. This component rarely contacts the model, and only one of the models for some assisting functions for some metadata to attach to the actual dataset. Is the component way the cake way to do something like this? Different main search types is 4, with variations for 2 different models. Different inserts 1 with 2 variations. Modifying pages 1. (Same form and everything, just some data used to check to which model uses that data) So i've done a simple component with a helper class to handle all of that :) Using cake 1.1 Main goal when i code is to get short, simple pieces of code together. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups CakePHP group.

Re: Post Data

Then since the DB field is a date, I and creating a default year by doing this: $this-data['Customer']['dob'] = '1901'.$this- form['PostDobmonth'].'-'.$_POST['PostDobday']; What is the correct format or way to use the form help and dropdown boxes like this?

Re: Fatal error Call to undefined method Controller Html()
?php echo $html-link('Activate account',
array('controller'='users', 'action' = 'activate', $userid); ?
^
it's missing a close bracket here -^
anyway:
Is there a way the above can be used to print out an absolute url ?
$html-link('Activate account', $html-
url(array('controller'='users', 'action' = 'activate', $userid),
true));
or
$html-link('Activate account',
Helper::url(array('controller'='users', 'action' = 'activate',
$userid), true));
or
$html-link('Activate account',
Router::url(array('controller'='users', 'action' = 'activate',
$userid), true));
-the boring explanation:
you can use Router::url/Helper::url passing true as the second param
to get the full route out of the url you passed in the first param.
in case you ever extend Helper::url on AppHelper, use $html-url()
to use the overrided method.
LAST BUT CERTAINLY NOT LEAST,
CakePHP has documentation and API specifications that cover this
feature, please refer to http://api.cakephp.org and http://manual.cakephp.org

Re: Jquery or Scriptalicious?
I perfer jQuery as well. Many Bakers like prototype due to the javascript and ajax helpers that come with CakePHP. These make baking with JS quite a bit easier, not to mention faster however many Javascript experts would cringe to think that developers are using php helpers for the behavioral portion of their sites because the scripts are no longer unobtrusive. jQuery is very easy to learn and uses many of the same selectors that CSS 2 and 3 use making it incredibly easy to develop around. However, if you require a JS helper there is a jQuery helper for CakePHP called pQuery. http://www.ngcoders.com/php/pquery-php-and-jquery If not then spend some time at the jQuery API and read through the tutorials. http://docs.jquery.com/Main_Page I love jQuery.

Re: Test Suite and HABTM Models - Not Working
Thanks Anupom,
That got me past the missing table cake errors, but now 2/3 of the
tests that cake generated are failing.
Here is my post.test.php
App::import('Model', 'Post');
class PostTestCase extends CakeTestCase {
var $Post = null;
var $fixtures = array('app.post');
function start() {
parent::start();
$this-Post = ClassRegistry::init('Post');
}
function testPostInstance() {
$this-assertTrue(is_a($this-Post, 'Post'));
}
function testPostFind() {
$results = $this-Post-recursive = -1;
$results = $this-Post-find('first');
$this-assertTrue(!empty($results));
$expected = array('Post' = array(
'id' = 1,
'name' = 'Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet'
));
$this-assertEqual($results, $expected);
}
}
The two cases that fail both reference testPostFind(). After a little
poking around, $this-Post-find('first') does not return anything at
all. The sql queries insert my data from the fixture and truncate it 3
times before finally dropping the tables. However, the query that I
believe is being generated from find('first') is being run on my
default connection, as opposed to the test connection. Shouldn't this
query be run on the test database since that's where the dummy data is
being inserted?
Any help is appreciated.

Hi Mike,
I think the RC3 bake script still generates old style code, like the
following -

class TestPost extends Post {
var $cacheSources = false;
var $useDbConfig = 'test_suite';
}
class PostTestCase extends CakeTestCase {
var $Post = null;
var $fixtures = array('app.post', 'app.tag');
function start() {
parent::start();
$this-Post = new TestPost();
}
.
.
.
Unfortunately this old style is redundant and does not work with
associations (without some hacks). But GOOD news is that - Tim and Nate have
come up with an even better solution and that works with associations
flawlessly. Edit your test files and make it like the following - it's gonna
work like a charm.
App::import('Model', 'Post');
class PostTestCase extends CakeTestCase {
var $Post = null;
var $fixtures = array('app.post', 'app.tag');
function start() {
parent::start();
$this-Post = ClassRegistry::init('Post');

Re: The Cake way of doing this? Multiple models accessing a huge dataset
Well without any real examples it's hard to tell what you're doing. However I think most people would recommend you should do more inside your models. Components should just be to help out controllers with requests. On Oct 31, 9:41 pm, Skal Tura [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I am wondering did i chose the Cake way of doing things with this, or atleast close :) We have multiple models, all of which access same set of tables handling massive amounts of data, searched using fulltext indexes. There's additions, searches, modifies etc. from 2 different models, ah but there's a gotcha! Most of these searches are slightly different, along with some of the inserts. So what i opted to do about handling this dataset is build an component used by the controllers. This component rarely contacts the model, and only one of the models for some assisting functions for some metadata to attach to the actual dataset. Is the component way the cake way to do something like this? Different main search types is 4, with variations for 2 different models. Different inserts 1 with 2 variations. Modifying pages 1. (Same form and everything, just some data used to check to which model uses that data) So i've done a simple component with a helper class to handle all of that :) Using cake 1.1 Main goal when i code is to get short, simple pieces of code together. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups CakePHP group.

Re: Help with ACL
Well, so much for an answer soon. Sorry about that. Not sure if you still need help with this, but could you show us your aro and aco structures so I get get a better idea as to what you're trying to do. I think I see what you're trying to do, but let's see if you have a proper ACl setup first. On Oct 24, 5:45 am, jst4fun [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Well I had gone through the links which you guys had provided. Thanks. But the issue for me to implement an ACL is that I am not sure what all function should be used due to the lack of documentation. One of the requirement is already discussed above. I think I was able to implement it partially. What I did was to create three tables one offices, groups and then users.I created parentNode() for group binding it to the office model and in users binding every users to group model. Now when I create a Group and select an office it is correctly created in aros table. Same with the users too. I found a script from cakebaker to list all controllers and save it as acos. Now I have aros and acos setup. In my application a superadmin can add new user, group and offices dynamically. This part i guess is already solved, thanks to parentNode(). When the super admin takes the add group page all the controllers with their actions are also displayed in that page. Actions will be having checkboxes to enable or disable that action to the user of that group. So my first doubt is 1) How is it possible to save a group and then its associated permissions dynamically? Then definitely the admin might have to delete a office or a group. In such a case 2) How is it possible to delete all the office and its group and remove the deleted group information from the users . I hope I have made everything clear and hope to get a reply soon.

Re: Jquery or Scriptalicious?
I think PHP helper for writing Javascript is a very bad idea.
I would say it depends on the purpose...
Let's take an example of AJAX form validation, why not have $form-
input() transparently supply jquery hooks to make it happen?
The developer might only be concerned with including the library (and
plugin), and even that can happen by doing $javascript-
jquery('formValidation');

You could use $form-checkbox();

Re: Jquery or Scriptalicious?
I agree in most cases. JavaScript code should be unobtrusive and only be written once, especially when already using a framework (like jQuery). I can almost see the value in generating widgets, but really the only thing that Cake should do is provide utility scripts and use naming conventions (FormHelper could use CSS classes that validation scripts target, etc.). Does JavaScriptHelper actually generate JS code? I've never used it because I use jQuery and write all of my own scripts.

Re: Position of label on checkbox inputs
Yeah, that's a correct assumption when using checkboxes in separate
rows. I got the same issue, because my project uses several checkboxes
in a single line - it makes confusion, i.e.
[X] C [X] M [_] Y [_] K
looks dumb and nonsensical.
I was thinking of extending the $form-checkbox helper with an option to
alter this, but the method posted by teknoid is much much better due to
its readability and complete lack of coding needed.
My field: $form-checkbox(...) with label set to false works best.
grigri pisze:
It is common practice to have labels for most form elements before
(above or to the left of) the element itself, except for radio buttons
and checkboxes, where the norm is for the label to be on the right.

I've never had a problem styling forms with the standard form helper
methods.
(On an unrelated note, are there any collections of CSS files for
cakephp forms? Might be a handy resource to create one. The bakery
style is ok, but a drop-in solution for columnar forms that work
directly with the form helper would be cool. A sort of CSS Cake
Garden if you will.)

The two cases that fail both reference testPostFind(). After a little
poking around, $this-Post-find('first') does not return anything at
all. The sql queries insert my data from the fixture and truncate it 3
times before finally dropping the tables. However, the query that I
believe is being generated from find('first') is being run on my
default connection, as opposed to the test connection. Shouldn't this
query be run on the test database since that's where the dummy data is
being inserted?
Any help is appreciated.

Hi Mike,
I think the RC3 bake script still generates old style code, like the

}
class PostTestCase extends CakeTestCase {
var $Post = null;

function start() {
parent::start();
$this-Post = new TestPost();
}
.

.
Unfortunately this old style is redundant and does not work with
associations (without some hacks). But GOOD news is that - Tim and Nate have
come up with an even better solution and that works with associations
flawlessly. Edit your test files and make it like the following - it's gonna
work like a charm.
App::import('Model', 'Post');
class PostTestCase extends CakeTestCase {
var $Post = null;
var $fixtures = array('app.post', 'app.tag');

ajax form submission - nothing happens
Hi,
I am trying to add a comments form to a blog post, updating the page
with ajax, specifically using prototype.js.
I've used ajax-form, however when I press the submit button
absolutely nothing happens.
I've tried the ajax submit method with the same result. If I submit
the form without ajax it works fine.
my view code is as follows:
echo $ajax-form('/comments/
add','post',array('update'='comments','url'='/comments/add'));
echo $form-input('Comment.name');
echo $form-input('Comment.content');
echo $form-
input('Comment.post_id',array('type'='hidden','value'=$post['Post']
['id']));
echo $form-end('Add Comment');
the add action in the comments controller is as follows:
function add() {
if (!empty($this-data)) {
$this-Comment-create();
if ($this-Comment-save($this-data)) {
$comments = $this-Comment-
find('all',array('conditions'=array('post_id'=$this-data['Comment']
['post_id']),'recursive'=-1));
$this-set(compact('comments'));
$this-render('add_success','ajax');
} else {
$this-render('add_failure', 'ajax');
}
}
}
and the created source is as follows:
div id=comments
form id=form283226270 onsubmit=event.returnValue = false;
return false; method=post action=/blog/comments/add
fieldset style=display:none;
input type=hidden name=_method value=POST /
/fieldset
script type=text/javascript
//![CDATA[
Event.observe('form283226270', 'submit', function(event) { new
Ajax.Updater('comments','/blog/comments/add', {asynchronous:true,
evalScripts:true, parameters:Form.serialize('form283226270'),
requestHeaders:['X-Update', 'comments']}) }, false);
//]]
/script
div class=input text
label for=CommentNameName/label
input name=data[Comment][name] type=text maxlength=100
value= id=CommentName /
/div
div class=input textarea
label for=CommentContentContent/label
textarea name=data[Comment][content] cols=30 rows=6
id=CommentContent /textarea
/div
input type=hidden name=data[Comment][post_id] value=7
id=CommentPostId/
div class=submit
input type=submit value=Add Comment /
/div
/form
/div
Does anyone know what might be wrong?
I'd appreciate any feedback as I've spent a whole day trying to solve
this and have no desire to quit the whole cakephp thing over something
like this!
Thanks
Kieron.

Re: Jquery or Scriptalicious?
I think we've moved off topic since the question wasn't about helpers, though I agree 100% with Anupom. It seems that the majority prefer jQuery but it's just that, a preference. I also agree with Flipflops. You should visit the official site of both libraries and do a bit of research and testing for yourself. Prototype has more widgets or plugins built by 3rd parties but jQuery seems to be one of the fastest growing and many, including myself, consider it the easiest to use with the smallest learning curve.

$this-assertTrue(is_a($this-Post, 'Post'));
}
function testPostFind() {
$results = $this-Post-recursive = -1;
$results = $this-Post-find('first');
$this-assertTrue(!empty($results));
$expected = array('Post' = array(
'id' = 1,
'name' = 'Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet'
));
$this-assertEqual($results, $expected);
}
}
The two cases that fail both reference testPostFind(). After a little
poking around, $this-Post-find('first') does not return anything at
all. The sql queries insert my data from the fixture and truncate it 3
times before finally dropping the tables. However, the query that I
believe is being generated from find('first') is being run on my
default connection, as opposed to the test connection. Shouldn't this
query be run on the test database since that's where the dummy data is
being inserted?
Any help is appreciated.

Hi Mike,
I think the RC3 bake script still generates old style code, like the
following -
App::import('Model', 'Post');
class TestPost extends Post {
var $cacheSources = false;
var $useDbConfig = 'test_suite';
}
class PostTestCase extends CakeTestCase {
var $Post = null;
var $fixtures = array('app.post', 'app.tag');
function start() {
parent::start();
$this-Post = new TestPost();
}
.
.
.
Unfortunately this old style is redundant and does not work with
associations (without some hacks). But GOOD news is that - Tim and Nate
have
come up with an even better solution and that works with associations
flawlessly. Edit your test files and make it like the following - it's
gonna
work like a charm.
App::import('Model', 'Post');
class PostTestCase extends CakeTestCase {
var $Post = null;
var $fixtures = array('app.post', 'app.tag');
function start() {
parent::start();
$this-Post = ClassRegistry::init('Post');
}
.
.
.
Read Tim's blog on this for more info.

Re: The Cake way of doing this? Multiple models accessing a huge dataset
Doing those tasks inside model seemed messy way to it. We have multiple models accessing portions of the data. Thought i showed quite clearly what this is upto :) So we have a text search engine, every snippet of text can have multiple boolean type of modes, such as: removed and verified along others. Texts are in UTF8 because some is in normal latin1 charset, some are russian or japanese. Therefore we have a field for romanised text (normal alphabetic). That data is searched, used, and modified by multiple different models, using slightly different criterias. There is 3 different models currently utilizing this component in a way or an another. Every one of those models uses that component differently, to output completely different things, from the same data.

Re: Looking for suggestion to filter data in cakephp
A Mac coming from Obj-C... you must be just a little frustrated with phps OO support :) I put the models I have and a controller method, as an example, in the bin for you to take a look at and laugh at as you please. http://bin.cakephp.org/view/1027493569 The code can be re-factored and improved a lot. I just wrote it in desperate haste a good while ago and have not had a cause to revisit it since. I forgot to put in the fields model (stored the searchable fields and their types). That part will probably be replaced by som automatic schema mapping but in my case I still have is as a table. The model has no special features. For your reference here is the table for that: CREATE TABLE `fields` ( `id` int(11) unsigned NOT NULL auto_increment, `display_name` varchar(255) default NULL, `type` varchar(255) default NULL, `field_name` varchar(255) default NULL, `model` varchar(255) default '', `created` datetime default NULL, `modified` datetime default NULL, PRIMARY KEY (`id`) ) ENGINE=MyISAM DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8 On Oct 30, 5:13 pm, mario [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Thanks Martin. That gave me a bit of an idea of what I'm going to do. And yes I want to know the specific details on how you implemented it.

But I think I get what you are doing. I created a filtering system about a year ago. I wanted/needed something that worked a bit like the find feature in Mac OS X Finder, or in some SQL-GUIs I have used. If you have see this you know what I am talking about. I also needed these to be saved and recalled later. Anyway. I ended up with something that is a lot more streamlined in the controller but with a bit more work done in the Models. Filter is the whole search setup for a particular search. Rule is a single filtering rule. Filter hasMany Rule One Rule can have: - a property to filter - an operator - a value entered by the user End result might be email ends with gmail.com for a single rule. Adding more rules to a Filter would narrow the search using AND. This turned out the be very flexible. A filter can be attached to any other model and do filtering on it. The rule model contained a big data array with different operators (sql fragments) for different types of data. Since humans want to filter numbers differently from email addresses I created a number of these preset custom fragments that could be selected from drop-downs in the gui. The rule model also contained a method for converting the stored parameters (field, match, value) to an sql fragment for a given model. Some examples of fragments: $this-types['Text']['equals'] = '%s LIKE \'%s\''; $this-types['Text']['contains'] = '%s LIKE \'%%%s%%\''; $this-types['Text']['starts_with'] = '%s LIKE \'%s%%\''; $this-types['Text']['ends_with'] = '%s LIKE \'%%%s\''; $this-types['Date']['days_ago'] = 'FLOOR(DATEDIFF(CURDATE(), DATE(%s))) = \'%s\''; $this-types['Date']['weeks_ago'] = 'FLOOR(DATEDIFF(CURDATE(), DATE(%s))/7) = \'%s\''; Each field is mapped to a type. Datetime fields becomes the Date type. Text fields could be set to email or anything but defaults to Text. The filter code was nothing special. The only special method there was getFilterFor($model_name) which gathers the results from each rule. The reason for this setup was partly flexibility and partly the GUI. I really wanted a humane gui. No wildcards or pseudo-sql. Simple selects and meaningful words. Looking back it is not a very difficult setup but it did take some time to come up with the right way to set it all up. I hope that gives you some ideas. Let me know if you want a few more boring details of the implementation. /Martin On Oct 30, 3:43 pm, mario [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hello everyone, I'm planning to include filters in my new project wherein it will allow the user to filter or show only the information that he/she wants.

Re: Jquery or Scriptalicious?
As lots of people have said you miss out on the helpers with jQuery, but if you don't like Prototype then its no great loss - but anyway what I've stared doing is writing a my own bake templates (ad7six wrote a really handy introduction http://www.ad7six.com/MiBlog/CustomBakeTemplates) which i have edited to include all the hooks (mostly css class names) and my jQuery scripts just work off those. Lets face it bake is pretty good, but you can still spend an age editing it all, especially the index views so you might as well get it set up how you like to begin with.

Re: Admin + Members suggested setup??
Thanks everyone for the useful tips, that helps a lot, which means I may have to restructure some stuff. Mostly, I think I was getting confused by the fact that with having `index` and `admin_index` I ended up doing 2 different views, where the difference was only whether or not to include an 'edit' link in the list ... which all seemed redundant, because any small change I'd make to one, I'd have to make to the other and seemed a bit more efficient to have a single view with checks for if they have permission or not.

This keeps me from filtering by fields in the related models.
ex:
$funnypeople = $this-Individual-find('all', array('conditions' =

This example works find if a person only has one Personality Type.
But what about this.
$racecardrivers = $this-Individual-find('all', array('conditions'

The problem here is a person could own multiple vehicles, so

I would need hasMany or hasAndBelongsToMany, which makes those model
inaccessible using find.

Re: htaccess problems.
Ok, so I read up some more on htaccess, so I went back to the original
htaccess file that was in the cake_install_dir
I should point out that I'm on a shared web server.
I found some hints on debugging on the web so here are my
modified .htaccess
Mostly added the the [R] where the [L] was. This was for debugging so
the url would be in the address bar when it failed
in cake1.2 directory
IfModule mod_rewrite.c
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule^$ app/webroot/[R]
RewriteRule(.*) app/webroot/$1 [R]
/IfModule
for apps directory
IfModule mod_rewrite.c
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule^$webroot/[R]
RewriteRule(.*) webroot/$1[R]
/IfModule
for webroot directory
IfModule mod_rewrite.c
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^index.php
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?url=$1 [R]
/IfModule
I did add another RewriteCond in the webroot .htaccess. I also
modified the webroot's index.php to just an if-else looking at the url
?php
if (isset($_GET['url'])){
echo 'You are here and url = ' . $_GET['url'];
}
else
{
echo ' No url seen ';
}
echo 'BLAH';
?
So what I see works and doesn't work.
http://www.example.net/cake1.2/app/webroot/foo.html (just a hello
world html)
http://www.example.net/cake1.2/app/webroot/index.php
http://www.example.net/cake1.2/app/webroot/index.php?url=posts
What doesn't work is
http://www.example.net/cake1.2/posts
http://www.example.net/cake1.2/app/posts
http://www.example.net/cake1.2/app/webroot/posts
Looking at the last one http://www.example.com/cake1.2/app/webroot/posts.
Because I put the [R] flags I see this in the address bar of the
failed attempt page
http://www.example.net/home/net/example/html/cake1.2/app/webroot/index.php?url=posts
So I'm thinking the problem is because I'm on a shared web server. But
thats just a hunch

.htaccess is necessary for pretty URLs and is certainly a good thing to have

Also please check if apache rewrite module is turned on in your web server.

My current web server only allows the /html directory as a HTML root.

so my directory appears something like this
/html
/cake1.2
/app
/cake
/docs
/vendors
/foobar
I've noticed in the past if I wanted to look at an html file in foobar
I had to usehttp://www.example.com/foobar
So I'm at step 4 in the documentation. I've confirmed with the web
server that has AllowOverride is set to All.
It seems that I can't do
http://www.example.com/cake1.2
http://www.example.com/cake1.2/index.php
or even
http://www.example.com/cake1.2/foo.html
The foo.html is just a hello world html file.
What I found is if I remove the .htaccess file I get a nice CakePHP
link telling my salt needs to be updated and that theres no connection
to DB.
So I went farther in the tutorial, I successfully linked DB changed
salt word. Checked thehttp://www.example.com/cake1.2and everything
looks fine, including DB is connected and no salt warning.
I did do a google search both here and the internet. I did find
something about adding a Rewritebase line to all 3 .htaccess, but not
sure if I did that correctly. When I changed that, it seemed to just
go to a blank webpage. No errors or anything.
So my questions are if the .htaccess is necessary? good practice?

call_user_function on the controller from the index($method) method
with the * as $method, but I'd rather direct the request straight to
the * method.

Re: htaccess problems.
Did you try adding something like this?
RewriteBase /home/net/example/html/cake1.2/

Ok, so I read up some more on htaccess, so I went back to the original
htaccess file that was in the cake_install_dir
I should point out that I'm on a shared web server.
I found some hints on debugging on the web so here are my
modified .htaccess
Mostly added the the [R] where the [L] was. This was for debugging so
the url would be in the address bar when it failed
in cake1.2 directory
IfModule mod_rewrite.c
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule^$ app/webroot/[R]
RewriteRule(.*) app/webroot/$1 [R]
/IfModule
for apps directory
IfModule mod_rewrite.c
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule^$webroot/[R]
RewriteRule(.*) webroot/$1[R]
/IfModule
for webroot directory
IfModule mod_rewrite.c
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^index.php
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?url=$1 [R]
/IfModule
I did add another RewriteCond in the webroot .htaccess. I also
modified the webroot's index.php to just an if-else looking at the url
?php
if (isset($_GET['url'])){
echo 'You are here and url = ' . $_GET['url'];
}
else
{
echo ' No url seen ';
}
echo 'BLAH';
?
So what I see works and doesn't work.
http://www.example.net/cake1.2/app/webroot/foo.html (just a hello
world html)
http://www.example.net/cake1.2/app/webroot/index.php
http://www.example.net/cake1.2/app/webroot/index.php?url=posts
What doesn't work is
http://www.example.net/cake1.2/posts
http://www.example.net/cake1.2/app/posts
http://www.example.net/cake1.2/app/webroot/posts
Looking at the last one http://www.example.com/cake1.2/app/webroot/posts.
Because I put the [R] flags I see this in the address bar of the
failed attempt page
http://www.example.net/home/net/example/html/cake1.2/app/webroot/index.php?url=posts
So I'm thinking the problem is because I'm on a shared web server. But
thats just a hunch

Hi there,
Can you please share your modified .htaccess file that you have inside

So my questions are if the .htaccess is necessary? good practice?
.htaccess is necessary for pretty URLs and is certainly a good thing to
have
:) You can though setup your cake to not to use .htaccess.
Also please check if apache rewrite module is turned on in your web
server.
Thanks.

I'm finding problems with what I believe is with .htaccess in the

My current web server only allows the /html directory as a HTML root.
To reduce complexity, I thought it would be good to start with
untaring the CakePHP in that directory.
so my directory appears something like this
/html
/cake1.2
/app
/cake
/docs
/vendors
/foobar
I've noticed in the past if I wanted to look at an html file in foobar
I had to usehttp://www.example.com/foobar
So I'm at step 4 in the documentation. I've confirmed with the web
server that has AllowOverride is set to All.
It seems that I can't do
http://www.example.com/cake1.2
http://www.example.com/cake1.2/index.php
or even
http://www.example.com/cake1.2/foo.html
The foo.html is just a hello world html file.
What I found is if I remove the .htaccess file I get a nice CakePHP
link telling my salt needs to be updated and that theres no connection
to DB.
So I went farther in the tutorial, I successfully linked DB changed
salt word. Checked thehttp://www.example.com/cake1.2and everything
looks fine, including DB is connected and no salt warning.
I did do a google search both here and the internet. I did find
something about adding a Rewritebase line to all 3 .htaccess, but not
sure if I did that correctly. When I changed that, it seemed to just
go to a blank webpage. No errors or anything.
So my questions are if the .htaccess is necessary? good practice?

Help with complex find() spanning several models
Hey all...
New to PHP, Cake, and MySQL so bear with me.
I've been searching high and low for the best way to make this query
work, but just haven't gotten it yet.
Here's my setup:
I have models for Users, Subscriptions, Authors, and Posts where:
User HasMany Subscription (pk_User.id, fk_Subscription.user_id),
Author, HasMany Subscription (pk_Author.id,
fk_Subscription.author_id),
Author HasMany Post (pk_Author.id, fk_Post.author_id)
and all of the related BelongsTo's as well.
I want to search $this-User-Subscription-Author-Post (from the
UsersController) for all posts where the logged in user has a current
subscription to that(/those) author(s).
E.g. - ($this-Auth-user('id') = Subscription.user_id AND
Subscription.expiration_date = date ('Y m d') AND
Subscription.author_id = Post.author_id).
Further, each Post contains a second field (INT) called
Post.access_level and this must be lower than the value stored in
Subscriptions.subscription_level.
The trick, of course, isn't just doing this, but doing it
efficiently. Here are the options I've thought of.
- I could query $this-User-Subscriptions for relevant subscriptions
and return either the full array (set to $subscriptions) or a 'list'
of key/value pairs where key = author_id and value =
subscription_level. However, in issuing a second find() call to Post,
I don't know how I would compare the key/value pairs in the
$subscriptions array with the values for 'Post.author_id' and
'Post.access_level' where the evaluation occurs at the row level in
$subscriptions. With the find('all') array I mentioned first,
$subscriptions returns an array with [key][Subscription][field] so I
can't set conditions for 'Post.author_id' and 'Post.access_level'
without a foreach() which I don't want because of the extra database
queries it would generate.
-Alternately, I could use BindModel() to create a HABTM (or I could
just create it permanently in the models) relationship between
Subscription and Post. This option requires an extra join table in my
database though, and may result in slower database queries as all the
joins are performed. Additionally, there are other models (File,
Event, etc) that are owned by Author and each of these would require
an extra join table and HABTM relationship. I could be wrong, but
doing all of this seems somehow redundant and there should be a more
elegant solution.
-There are also probably other ways using PHP functions to manipulate
the arrays after they have been returned from find calls (e.g.
Subscriptions-find w/ conditions and Post-find w/ conditions and
then some PHP array functions to compare those two arrays), but I'm
too new to this to know where to even start with that.
There's got to be a simple method I'm missing (or just don't know
about yet). Any ideas?

Re: Jquery or Scriptalicious?
Here's my take for what little it's worth (note I use scripa/proto) if you want to use the ajax helper at this point you are tied to scripta/proto. now given that the stated plans in unofficial channels is that the helper is either being migrated to jQuery or being driving to a javascript _framwork_ agnostic place, it really doesn't matter. If on the otherhand you see yourself not feeling like the helper as it exists now will meet your needs and you will be wanting insight and help from people on this list on integrating javascript _framework_ into your project, then I would say that the responses to your question indicate, to me, that jQuery is a more of the current 'hotness' and you are likely to get more help from people jazzed up on jQuery.

A couple of things with Security Component
I'm having a bit of a problem with the Security Component on one of my
actions. It works on most, but this one action is quiet complex. I'm
not even sure what the problem could possible be. So rather than
asking what the problem is with my action, I would rather ask if there
is any information that explains how the security component works (not
how to implement it), so that I might be able to pin point the problem
with my code. Basically, my request get's black holed when I select a
checkbox. I'm using
?php echo $form-select('Category.Category', $categories,
$selectedCategories, array('multiple' = 'checkbox'));?
Everything works fine if I don't select a category. But if I select a
category, the request get's blackholed. So if I can learn how the
security component actually works, maybe I can figure out my problem.
How does the security component create it's token? Hidden field
values? And at what point does it do this? afterRender perhaps,
because how can it know what hidden fields there are if we're setting
those values in our controller action?

Re: Help with complex find() spanning several models
Thanks for the help teknoid. I've done that, and I think there are
some possibilities there, but they are a little longer than I'd like.
For those who might come after this and not feel like reading the full
situation above, my question in a nut-shell really is:
How do you run a find on a field in a Model that is two associations
away rather than just one?
E.g. - When querying Post which belongsTo Artist which hasMany
Subscription, how do I compare a field in Post to a field in
Subscription? Cake doesn't seem to want to create a second JOIN in
the SQL output.

Re: Help with complex find() spanning several models
By default joins are only built for hasOne or belongsTo.
Here's how to trick cake into building joins for deep model
bindings:

there is another post on my blog if you search, which has a slightly

For those who might come after this and not feel like reading the full

How do you run a find on a field in a Model that is two associations

E.g. - When querying Post which belongsTo Artist which hasMany

Re: htaccess problems.
No I did try that. The physical path was added by the server or
somehow my account is setup.
The RewriteBase did give me success !!
I'll just share part of the process for future people that may find
the same problem.
First of all the [R] that I talked about in my second post helped me
debug this a little more.
I needed to use the RewriteBase to strip off the physical address. I
now have the following .htaccesses
#/cake1.2/.htaccess
IfModule mod_rewrite.c
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /cake1.2
RewriteRule^$ app/webroot/[L]
RewriteRule(.*) app/webroot/$1 [L]
/IfModule
#/cake1.2/app/.htaccess
IfModule mod_rewrite.c
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /cake1.2/app
RewriteRule^$webroot/[L]
RewriteRule(.*) webroot/$1[L]
/IfModule
#/cake1.2/app/webroot/.htaccess
IfModule mod_rewrite.c
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /cake1.2/app/webroot
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?url=$1 [QSA,L]
/IfModule
What also helps debug is to make a backup of the original index.php in
webroot and replace it with something simple like I did in my second
post. This reduced the the problem set to just the htaccess and
defines I needed to tell where cake directories were.
Thanks a ton.

Mostly added the the [R] where the [L] was. This was for debugging so

I did add another RewriteCond in the webroot .htaccess. I also
modified the webroot's index.php to just an if-else looking at the url
?php
if (isset($_GET['url'])){
echo 'You are here and url = ' . $_GET['url'];

So what I see works and doesn't work.

What doesn't work is
http://www.example.net/cake1.2/posts
http://www.example.net/cake1.2/app/posts
http://www.example.net/cake1.2/app/webroot/posts
Looking at the last onehttp://www.example.com/cake1.2/app/webroot/posts.
Because I put the [R] flags I see this in the address bar of the

Scaffold belongsTo question
I assume convention over configuration:
I have Two Models:
Users:
Requests:
belongsTo ('User')
Hoever, when I bake up the MVC, the index view of Requests shows the
ID of Request.id rather than the NAME of User.name.
I am to understand that this should not happen.
Your thoughts or rants are both appreciated.

Re: File uploads timing out
You didn't mention what technique you were using to upload files,
however here is one idea.
If you are doing a flash upload, some browsers (can't remember which)
won't complete the request until data is returned from the server. So
in my upload action I always output a space. exit(' ');
Also, are you testing locally or on a server? Do any errors show up in
the apache, php or cakephp logs?
Cheers,
Adam

as matter of fact there is an example like like this one in the

Named parameter routing does not work with pagination(bug or feature?)
Hello guys,
I have defined following route in routes.php:
Router::connect('/users/:uid/friends/*', array('controller' = 'users',
'action' = 'friends'),
array('pass'=array('uid')));
when i try to use paginator to build pagination links, the links to pages
look like the default cake php route:
they look as /users/friends/uid/page:1 where as using the above route, i
expect them to be: /users/uid/friends/page:1.
I am confused whether this a bug or feature? My pagination code for building
the links:
?=$paginator-last('img src=/img/last.gif border=0 width=18
height=18 /',
array('escape'=false));?
?= $paginator-numbers(); ?
My paginate setup:
$this-paginate = array('limit'=1,
'page'=1,
'order'='UsersFriend.created DESC',
'contain'=array('User', 'Profile'));
$data = $this-paginate('UsersFriend',
array('UsersFriend.user_id'=$user['User']['id']));
Please help.

New to PHP, Cake, and MySQL so bear with me.
I've been searching high and low for the best way to make this query
work, but just haven't gotten it yet.
Here's my setup:
I have models for Users, Subscriptions, Authors, and Posts where:
User HasMany Subscription (pk_User.id, fk_Subscription.user_id),
Author, HasMany Subscription (pk_Author.id,
fk_Subscription.author_id),
Author HasMany Post (pk_Author.id, fk_Post.author_id)
and all of the related BelongsTo's as well.
I want to search $this-User-Subscription-Author-Post (from the
UsersController) for all posts where the logged in user has a current
subscription to that(/those) author(s).
E.g. - ($this-Auth-user('id') = Subscription.user_id AND
Subscription.expiration_date = date ('Y m d') AND
Subscription.author_id = Post.author_id).
Further, each Post contains a second field (INT) called
Post.access_level and this must be lower than the value stored in
Subscriptions.subscription_level.
The trick, of course, isn't just doing this, but doing it
efficiently. Here are the options I've thought of.
- I could query $this-User-Subscriptions for relevant subscriptions
and return either the full array (set to $subscriptions) or a 'list'
of key/value pairs where key = author_id and value =
subscription_level. However, in issuing a second find() call to Post,
I don't know how I would compare the key/value pairs in the
$subscriptions array with the values for 'Post.author_id' and
'Post.access_level' where the evaluation occurs at the row level in
$subscriptions. With the find('all') array I mentioned first,
$subscriptions returns an array with [key][Subscription][field] so I
can't set conditions for 'Post.author_id' and 'Post.access_level'
without a foreach() which I don't want because of the extra database
queries it would generate.
-Alternately, I could use BindModel() to create a HABTM (or I could
just create it permanently in the models) relationship between
Subscription and Post. This option requires an extra join table in my
database though, and may result in slower database queries as all the
joins are performed. Additionally, there are other models (File,
Event, etc) that are owned by Author and each of these would require
an extra join table and HABTM relationship. I could be wrong, but
doing all of this seems somehow redundant and there should be a more
elegant solution.
-There are also probably other ways using PHP functions to manipulate
the arrays after they have been returned from find calls (e.g.
Subscriptions-find w/ conditions and Post-find w/ conditions and
then some PHP array functions to compare those two arrays), but I'm
too new to this to know where to even start with that.
There's got to be a simple method I'm missing (or just don't know
about yet). Any ideas?

Re: Search Engine Bots Generating Strange Queries
Hi Mike, Disallowing that in your robots.txt is a waste of time. The robots.txt file was started by Google, and is not an officially supported feature of all crawlers. So they don't have to follow it, and I can tell you this doesn't sound like the google bot anyway, because that bot doesn't generate phantom URIs. Web crawlers can extract URIs from many different sources, and they can generate URIs as they see fit. URIs can come from HTML, CSS, SWF, JavaScript, and form post/get actions. I've even seen crawlers submit post requests to generate more URIs to crawl. Crawlers will also clean URIs removing ids, changing queries, fake cookies, and sometimes rotate their IP address. There are no rules about crawlers, no guidelines they have to follow, or limits on how long they will crawl or how aggressively they will request URIs from your server. You should modify your Routes to point to a 404 if they request paths that you don't want them to see. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups CakePHP group.
