Re: Dynamic form fields / multi-dimension array inside $this->data
Thanks guys. I've also discovered that I can flatten those arrays out
and do some array jiggling to accommodate my need.

Re: Dynamic form fields / multi-dimension array inside $this->data
I found a "syntax" in order to do this with form helper in cake 1.2
$form->input('Request/group][1][test'
will give data['Request']['group'][1]['test']
$form->input('Request/group][1][3][test'
will give data['Request']['group'][1][3]['test']
$form->input('Request/group][1][3][5][test'
will give data['Request']['group'][1][3][5]['test']
hope this helps

Re: Dynamic form fields / multi-dimension array inside $this->data
Sure.
The following example uses Cake 1.2's FormHelper, but the general
syntax should work for 1.1's HTMLHelper:
for ($i=0;$i<$weekMax;$i++) {
echo $form->text('User.start]['.$i);
}
Or you could just generate the inputs by hand, using the structure:
etc.
Using either of the above methods, the $this->data array in your
controller will have $this->data['start'] as an array with the same
number of elements you specified in your view. You could then
serialize this array before storing it in your DB to reduce the number
of fields you need.
Hope this helps,
Casey

Dynamic form fields / multi-dimension array inside $this->data
Hi guys,
I am building a training scheduling app where I am stuck at the weekly
schedule list form. Each training class is a multi-week schedule,
somewhere between 15-20 weeks. I have a table that keep tracks thes
length of the training class. However, when it comes to the frontend
rendering, I don't know how to assign the text fields to capture all
the start date / end date of the each week:
For example:
Week 1
input('User/start_date', array('size' =>
'20')?>
tagErrorMsg('User/start_date', 'Start Date
is required'); ?>
input('User/end_date', array('size'
=> '20')?>
tagErrorMsg('User/end_date', 'End Date is required'); ?>
...
...
Is there some way to make cakePHP keep all week schedule data into
$this->data['User']['start'][0] to $this->data['User']['start'][15],
for instance? If so, what should I put for the first parameter of
HtmlHelper::input() method?
Thanks a lot!!
