Newbie-question: Store multiple model-objects with just one form
Hi there, I'd like to implement a form with which I want to achieve that the parent model -objects and the child-models-objects (hasMany) are being stored in the database by clicking on one submit button. For example: Parent-Model 'book' (with attributes like 'author', 'title', etc) hasMany 'chapter' (with atrributes like 'headline', 'order', 'book_id') hasMany 'image' (with attributes like 'name', 'path', 'chapter_id'). The action of the form sth. like 'app/book/add/. Does someone has a best practice for this? Is it clean designed to call /app/chapter/add and app/image/add from the book-controller function, or how would you do this? Does cakephp forsee a different design in terms of cakephp conventions/paradigms? I'm sure it is just a newbie question...sorry :-/ Kind regards, volka. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "CakePHP" group.
