Form helper issue with euro symbol
Hi, I have a form input which is taking in a rate title. This has worked fine in the past but when a euro symbol is added to a title Cake doesn't seem to be converting it to 'euro' as I would expect. The core file, layout and database are all using utf-8 encoding. I'm just wondering if there is some parameter I can add to the form input field to force Cake to convert the euro before saving? Any advice would be greatly appreciated... -- Our newest site for the community: CakePHP Video Tutorials http://tv.cakephp.org Check out the new CakePHP Questions site http://ask.cakephp.org and help others with their CakePHP related questions.

form helper issue for associated models inside and outside a plugin
We have a plugin (let’s name it “Cms”). This plugin has a model called
Image, used to add images to a model. The Image model is inside the
plugin; others models are, of course, outside (for example the “Page”
model). The relationship is made on the fly, with a code like this
$this-Page-bindModel(array('hasMany' = array('Cms.Image' = array
('foreignKey' = 'record_id';
We use Cms.Image because the bind must be donde like: Plugin.Model
Then we want to add a new page, so we write this code in the “add”
view
echo $form-create(array('type' = 'file'));
echo $form-input('Page.title');
echo $form-input('Page.content');
...etc
And now, here is the problem: ¿How do we write the input for the
Image?
If the Image model where outside the plugin, we would normally use:
echo $form-input('Image.0.name');
then in the controller we use the method saveAll, and everything is
smooth.
But the situation is different here, we have a model outside the
plugin (Page) which is associated with a model Inside the plugin
(Image)
My first attempt was to do this:
echo $form-input('Cms.Image.0.name');
but it fails! It generates an input with the attribute name=data[Cms]
[Image][0][name]
If I hardcode the input field with something like name=data[Cms.Image]
[0][name] everything works perfect (with validation and callbacks for
both models). But working in this way I have to do an extra job for
display error messages and I assume I would have some other issues if
I don’t use the form helper.
The second idea was:
echo $form-input('Image.0.name', array('plugin' = 'Cms'));
But it didn’t work either, because the input method in the form helper
doesn’t expect a plugin key in the options array and just ignore it. I
read the code of Form::input() and I found that the separation into
array keys by the point is made by a very parent classes, so I neither
could easily hack the core to find a solution.
What do yo think? Is there a way to solve this issue or the problem is
me misunderstanding something? (or everything maybe)
Thanks for the support!

Form Helper Issue
Hi,
I recently noticed a weird issue regarding the form helper.
I have a model with 2 habtm associations - one of them being 'Local'.
So here's what I don't understand:
When using
$form-input('Local')
in an add/edit-form cake's rendering a multiple-select-box, which is
not my intention and also space-wasting but working great!
So I substituted that line with:
$form-input('Local', array('type' = 'select'))
Cake now renders the desired select-box, but when trying to save the
form I get following errors:
Warning (2): Invalid argument supplied for foreach() [CORE/cake/libs/
model/model.php, line 1284]
Warning (2): Cannot modify header information - headers already sent
by (output started at /path/to/cake/basics.php:338) [CORE/cake/libs/
controller/controller.php, line 546]
The association also doesn't get saved. I can imagine that my post-
data is corrupt when using the drop-down-box. Why's that?

Re: Form Helper Issue
Read : http://book.cakephp.org/view/85/saving-related-model-data-habt
It describes the proper way to create a habtm form and save the
related data [especially the last sentence!].
Also, I'm not sure I understand about the multiple-select-box. You've
defined an assoiciation where `A` has and belongs to *many* `B`, but
you don't want the select box to be multiple? How does this work?

Re: Form Helper Issue
If I want to save the B's which have/belong to A one by one it is a
proper solution not to use a multiple select box.
Finally i got the idea using:
$form-input('Local', array('multiple' = false))
could help and it worked!
The fact that using 'type' = 'select' is producing messed up data
seems pretty weird though to me!

Re: Form Helper Issue
i think the reason why have this error is because of that
cake supposes the input is from a multiple-select-box, whose value is
an array, but not from a single-select-box (dorp-down-box), whose
value is a single string. so when cake tries to read elements from an
array but the feed is a string, the error occurs.
by default, as grigri said, cake thinks multi-select-box for the habtm
relation since you set that there may be many. if this relation is not
exactly as expected, i would change it if i were you since there may
be more extra database queries (costs) made based on this relation.
good luck!

Re: Form helper issue
In this case the URL with GET parameters is not readable at all :-).
For examle this is might be a result of search or filter form.

The simplest solution would be to use $this-input('General.island_param')
