Problem with accessing form data

[newguy]

Hi
I have a simple form in my view where the user enters a 4 digit
numeral code, in the controller action am unable to access this code,
it would be great if some one could tell me how to access this code in
the action and then pass this code as a parameter to another
controller action.

***Form**
pEnter User Code/p
?php echo $form-Create('Admin',array('action'='view_specific'));
  echo $form-input('Code');
  echo $form-end('Submit');
?


*Action
function view_specific()
 {
if($this-data)
 {
// $code=get data from teh form;


//$this-redirect(array('action'='view_specific_result',
$code));


 }
 }


Thanks

RE: Problem with accessing form data

$this-data // holds form data

Use debug! Make it your best friend. Don't know what data is held? Where it
went? Even if there is any?

if(!empty($this-data)){

Configure::write('debug', 2);//only if you need it for this action 
debug($this-data);
exit();

}

My guess is it should be an array similar to 

Array(
[Admin] = array(
[Code] = 1234
));

So $this-data['Admin']['Code'] would hold 1234

HTH..

$this-redirect(array('controller' = $controller, 'action' =
$action, $id, 'named' = $named, 'named2' = $named2));
