Re: newbie question - multiple functions in a page
I'm fairly new to Cake too, so maybe I will hit something helpful here. The tutorial examples tend to make it look like 1 controller for 1 model and 1 model for 1 controller. This is not at all true. A controller can also use many models or even none. I think of a controller as the organization of a page, just as a view is its presentation. A model set up to CHUD on one model has been a rarity for me except for administration. You can use controller's to render just a piece of the page using requestAction. The reason this is frowned upon is the idea that it exercises the whole Cake mechanism, which maybe time consuming. I'm not really sure if this is true or not, and I've not seen anyone posting any statistics backing this up. I agree that it intuitively feels correct, but as a 'C' programmer, my initial intuition about PHP was, how was it going to get off the ground? So intuition on a Gigahertz CPU is not always very accurate. Elements do however seem to fill the bill as reusable mini-controllers for rendering parts of the page. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Cake PHP" group.

Re: HTTPS
Your question needs a little more information to get any kind of useful answer. Is this css in a separate style sheet, or embedded directly in the view. Did you put the sytel sheet in the webroot/css directory or elsewhere? Are you using a helper? How are you referencing the filename. Etc. etc. On Nov 27, 12:12 am, wowwildcat <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I try to run cake onhttps://localhost/cake/but the css didn't shows > up.

Re: ajaxHelper::observeField - observes text field onBlur, not onChange
My recent experience is that you want to trigger on the upkey event.
Ignore the event structure itself. Go to the field and read its
value.
If you look on the downkey, the value hasn't been updated yet.

Re: String concatenation not working
I know this might sound a little obvious, but what would you say the size of your database is in bytes of text? I only ask because if for example, your database had 100Gig, you certainly would not expect this to work, would you? It would seem that for a website that can be hosted for $11/month that the operation aught to work, however I don't have an experience with what kind of room PHP or probably mod_php gives you. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Cake PHP" group.

Re: $form->checkbox having troubles.
I've figured out what the strange hidden inputs are about. The only big issue I have is why type="checkbox" is repeated. This might not seem like a big problem, but I sometimes have to run the generated HTML through an XML parser. This is a first step to converting it to a JSON string to return an XMLHTTP request. The problem is that the XML parser barfs on the duplicate attribute. It's very picky. Anyone know why the duplicate type= or how to stop it?

Re: How delete selected checkboxes?
I'm not sure, but I think you might be asking how to have the products deleted immediately when you check the box? There are two aspects to this process. 1) Deleting the product record from a database on the host 2) Deleting the entry on the screen For 1) you will need to somehow put an onClick handler on each checkbox Input. You can do this directly in your view, but you will need to also have the handler javascript accessed by your page. You can also do this with some startup javascript code. Once you are in the handler, there are two approaches. First you could 'submit' the form yourself to the page controller. This controller would do the database delete, and refresh the entire page. This might be a little disconcerting as well as time consuming for the user if they have to delete a number of products. After each check they would need to wait for the refresh. An alternative is to use the xmlhttp object (aka Ajax). To do this, you would send a product ID to a special controller. The controller would delete the product, and send some kind of confirmation message back. This all requires some fancy javascript, but there is plenty of documentation around, and plenty of libraries that will help you. 2) If each delete above causes a page refresh, then there is nothing to do here. The refreshed page will appear without the deleted product. If you are taking the Ajax route, you have two choices. Delete the product entry when you send the delete request, or when the result comes back. In either case, it is a matter of manipulating the DOM structures to remove the product from your page. If you have questions about how to do this, or integrating it into Cake, you are welcome to email me directly. Most of this really is not a Cake matter.

$form->checkbox having troubles.
I'm using version 1.2.0.5427alpha, and I'm seeing very weird output
from $form->checkbox().
My code looks like:
$name="Model.field';
echo $form->checkbox($name,array('label'=>false,'div'=>false,'value'=>
$somevalue);
The output is something like:
I don't know where to begin with this. Why is there a hidden
being output. Why is a inserted even though I think I've asked
it not to. This worked on $form->input(). And then there's those
'label=""' and 'div=''' attributes? Clearly I'm doing something
wrong.
Thanks for any help.

Re: Cakephp newbie design question
Not sure if I understand the question, but I think you want to keep track of the user being logged in, in a Session variable. That way, when you build the "tab" pages, you know whether to put up Generic or Specific content.I would put the navigation tabs in an element and pass it a variable to indicate which tab is out front.

A lot of mail these days will be marked spam, put in the spam box, or not delivered at all if it goes out in large batches. You might need to experiment with different batch sizes to see if you are having trouble getting through. There are related problems to think of too. My (small) ISP had a cow when some people at AOL marked as spam my roommates music mailing list. He was seriously worried that AOL would start blocking all of his email. Likewise, there are a lot of IP blacklists around, and if you get on one, it can be difficult to get off. Make sure you give your customers an unsubscribe tab, and make it easy as possible. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Cake PHP" group.

Re: Simple authentication for directory??
Instead of replace SRC with
"get_picture.php/1". get_picture.php checks whether the user is
logged in and if so uses the following PHP code to return the picture.
$fileno = $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'];
$filename = "/picture/directory/not-below-webroot/PICTURE" . $fileno .
".jpg";
$image = imagecreatefromjpeg($filename);
if ($image == null)
{
return;
}
header("content-type: image/jpeg");
imagejpeg($image);
imagedestroy($image);
This requires that PHP be configured with the gd library. I'm not
sure if that is common or not.

Re: Programming with controllers
> Perhaps the ´flash´ message would be appropriate? Thanks for the suggestion, but I don't think you understand the issue. Which controller would I issue the flash message from? The login controller is where it needs to go, but doesn't know what the error message is. The main controller knows the what the error message is, but issuing the flash message request from it would not put it where the html is rendered. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Cake PHP" group.

Programming with controllers
I'm new to Cakephp and there's a situation that I'm not sure how to deal with. In a controller for some page and I do some custom validation on form input, for example I see if login-id/password are valid. If the validation fails, the controller generates an error message for display in the login section of the page. Since the same login is used on every page, it is generated with its own separate controller. The html is generated by calling the login controller with the requestAction method. The question is how to get the error message to the login controller for rendering? I could send it as a parameter in requestAction, but this would require encoding and decoding it so spaces are not a problem. I can also use a global variable, but this seems to violate the spirit of MVC and clean programming in general. Is there a more straight forward way to do this? --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Cake PHP" group.
