@Yves: People keep recommending paginaton along with CakeDC's
searchable plugin.  If you take their advice and go and read the
associated documentation you should easily be able to figure this out
for yourself.

At present you have still not got your head around the fact that you
only need to run $this->paginate() and it returns BOTH the limited
results you requested AND supply's the paginate helper with all the
info it needs to create pagination links.

Please go back and read the very good documentation because a lot of
people have been trying to support you with this for over 3 weeks now
and you're making very little progress, even though the procedures
involved are relatively simple.

Where should the processing happen, controller or view?  Also, why is the 
second provider started with an upper-case letter?

Hmm, the find() will return all data. To enable pagination, the result must 
be processed by Controller::paginate()

$this->set('provider', $this->paginate('Provider', $conditions));

Re: Implementing a search functionality

[rchavik]

I highly recommend to take a look at cakedc's search 
plugin. 
It's a little more involved to setup but worth the trouble to learn and use.

Re: Implementing a search functionality

[Yves S. Garret]

Ok, this is weird.  It does pagination, which is good.  The problem arises
is that when I run the search, after it it runs again, for all of the names
in the DB... on the first page the search results are displayed, but on the
next, the rest of the data is displayed!  Does pagination run some other
search in the background or after the fact?  This is weird, please help out.

Re: Implementing a search functionality

[Yves S. Garret]

Ok, as I have it works.  Yay!

The thing that was tripping me up was that the pagination ran _after_ the
search.

This is how view_admit_lookup is now.

function view_admit_lookup() {
$this->helpers['Paginator'] = array('ajax' => 'ajax');
// provide pagination for the user.
$this->set('provider', $this->paginate());

// here we begin searching for whatever we need.
if(!empty($this->data['Provider']['last_name'])) {
$this->set('provider', $this->Provider->find('all',

array('conditions' =>
array(

'Provider.last_name LIKE' => $this->data['Provider']['last_name'].'%';
}

// set the title and the default layout.
$this->set('title_for_layout', 'Admit Lookup');
$this->layout = 'default';
}

Re: Implementing a search functionality

[Yves S. Garret]

Ok, one more time!

This is my view:
http://bin.cakephp.org/view/859204807
My model:
http://bin.cakephp.org/view/455436825
My controller:
http://bin.cakephp.org/view/2083728780

Now, what happens is that when I run a search for, say, Smith, the page
just refreshes with all of the stuff as it was.  I inserted debug code
(lines 31 & 32) in the if-statement just to see what was going on and turns
out nothing was going >_>

Should I run this after the pagination?

Re: Implementing a search functionality

[Yves S. Garret]

Yes, they're wrong.  But being new I was sure how correct/incorrect my
approach was.  I'm working off of the stuff of another developer (who made
the said file names).

This is what I have setup now:

app\
  controllers\
providers_controller.php
  models\
provider.php
  views\
providers\
  view_admit_lookup.ctp

provider.php:
http://bin.cakephp.org/view/1833911095
providers_controller.php:
http://bin.cakephp.org/view/566732842
view_admit_lookup.ctp:
http://bin.cakephp.org/view/1947492040

 The filename should be providers_controller.php
 Change the code as per my post below.
 The view should be in /app/views/providers/
 Add $var $name = 'Provider'; to the beginning of the Provider model

Re: Implementing a search functionality

[Jeremy Burns | Class Outfit]

Your conventions are all over the place. Its best to stick to them.

Did you change the code inside the controller as suggested in my first post?

class ProvidersController extends AppController {
var $name = 'Providers';

The filename is view_admit_lookup, yet the controller function is 
viewAdmitLookup - they should match. Change the function name to 
view_admit_lookup

In the view, you have this:

echo $form->create("Providers", array('action' => 'search'));

It'll create a form that tries to find the Providers model, not the Provider 
model. Change it to:

echo $form->create("Provider", array('action' => 'search'));

Change Providers to Provider throughout the view code.

In your controller function you have $this->set('providers'... which sends a 
variable $providers into the view, yet in the view you are iterating through a 
variable called $Providers. Change the variable in the view to $providers.

Your are using $form-> when you should be using $this->Form (that's the syntax 
for helpers in general, so $this->Html etc).

See this section of the book on conventions:

http://book.cakephp.org/view/901/CakePHP-Conventions

You can deviate from them with additional work, but it is not worth the effort 
else you'll run into issues like this.

Re: Implementing a search functionality

[Yves S. Garret]

Yup.  CakePHP 1.3.  The view is in
\app\views\providers\view_admit_lookup.ctp

The controller file name is providers_controller.php.  I added the variable
that you suggested to the model file (which is called Provider.php) and I
get the same error :-( .

  However, trying it to move it into my project is my present issue.

 Here is my model:
 http://bin.cakephp.org/view/792515073
 Here is my controller:
 http://bin.cakephp.org/view/514764310
 Here is my view:
 http://bin.cakephp.org/view/1923279272

 The issue that I get when I run Search:

 Missing Controller

 *Error: **ProvidersController* could not be found.

 *Error: *Create the class *ProvidersController* below in file:
 app\controllers\providers_controller.php

 >>> class ProvidersController extends AppController {

var $name = 'Providers';
 }
 ?>

 *Notice: *If you want to customize this error message, create
 app\views\errors\missing_controller.ctp

 provider_controller.php has a var $name = 'Providers'; as the name...

Re: Implementing a search functionality

[Jeremy Burns | Class Outfit]

Did you change anything? This is 1.3, right?

The filename should be providers_controller.php
Change the code as per my post below.
The view should be in /app/views/providers/
Add $var $name = 'Provider'; to the beginning of the Provider model file.

 The tutorial is using a search behavior (which probably does the calls -
 i haven't looked to verify)

 but to answer your question from above, I would recommend doing the
 tutorial OUTSIDE of your current project just to familiarize yourself with
 what it is asking you to do.

 Once you get that up and running you would have a much better
 understanding of what direction you would rather go in as a developer.

 so...yes...follow all steps in the tut.

 Now, if you are going away from the tutorial, you can just the data that
 comes back in the $this->data collection from your search box in the view
 and use that model call I used above.  If you dont understand this last 
 bit,
 it is best you try the tutorial out first with a fresh install etc...so as
 not to disrupt your project or in the very least back it up.

Your controller names should be plural; try:

Re: Implementing a search functionality

[Yves S. Garret]

Ok, this is weird.

I found this tutorial on doing searches.
http://mrphp.com.au/code/search-forms-cakephp

That's good.  Now, this is my Model:
http://bin.cakephp.org/view/1495255597
View:
http://bin.cakephp.org/view/814828491
Controller:
http://bin.cakephp.org/view/1212386780

Now, when I run the search based on someone, I get something like this:
Missing Controller

*Error: **ProvidersController* could not be found.

*Error: *Create the class *ProvidersController* below in file:
app\controllers\providers_controller.php



*Notice: *If you want to customize this error message, create
app\views\errors\missing_controller.ctp
Now, I don't have Providers, I have Provider (singular only), so where is it
getting the plural from?

My question in that case would be, why am I getting that error?

Re: Implementing a search functionality

[Yves S. Garret]

I have a decent understanding of what the tutorial is trying to do.
 However, trying it to move it into my project is my present issue.

Here is my model:
http://bin.cakephp.org/view/792515073
Here is my controller:
http://bin.cakephp.org/view/514764310
Here is my view:
http://bin.cakephp.org/view/1923279272

The issue that I get when I run Search:

Missing Controller

*Error: **ProvidersController* could not be found.

*Error: *Create the class *ProvidersController* below in file:
app\controllers\providers_controller.php



*Notice: *If you want to customize this error message, create
app\views\errors\missing_controller.ctp

provider_controller.php has a var $name = 'Providers'; as the name...

Re: Implementing a search functionality

[Dee Johnson]

my apologies, I saw where you said you wanted to make the tutorial simpler 
and i assumed that you already knew how to make calls etc.  

The tutorial is using a search behavior (which probably does the calls - i 
haven't looked to verify)

but to answer your question from above, I would recommend doing the tutorial 
OUTSIDE of your current project just to familiarize yourself with what it is 
asking you to do.  

Once you get that up and running you would have a much better understanding 
of what direction you would rather go in as a developer.  

so...yes...follow all steps in the tut.  

Now, if you are going away from the tutorial, you can just the data that 
comes back in the $this->data collection from your search box in the view 
and use that model call I used above.  If you dont understand this last bit, 
it is best you try the tutorial out first with a fresh install etc...so as 
not to disrupt your project or in the very least back it up.

Re: Implementing a search functionality

[Yves S. Garret]

And yes, the specific column does exist already.

Also, when you wrote this portion:

$this->Model->find('all', array('conditions' => array('Model.lastname LIKE'
=> '%' . $searchterm . '%')));

I didn't see that in the tutorial, where did you get this?

Re: Implementing a search functionality

[Yves S. Garret]

Thanks for your reply.

To be more specific, would it make sense to do this portion of the tutorial?

Setup

So to get things started, we need to download seachable behavior from (
http://code.google.com/p/searchable-behaviour-for-cakephp). Then we copy the
archive contents to the /app folder. To complete the installation process
there is one more thing to do: create the search table. So we run the
following sql code:

CREATE TABLE `search_index` (
`id` int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment,
`association_key` int(11) NOT NULL,
`model` varchar(128) collate utf8_unicode_ci NOT NULL,
`data` longtext collate utf8_unicode_ci NOT NULL,
`created` datetime NOT NULL,
`modified` datetime NOT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY  (`id`),
KEY `association_key` (`association_key`,`model`),
FULLTEXT KEY `data` (`data`)
) ENGINE=MyISAM  DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8 COLLATE=utf8_unicode_ci;

Re: Implementing a search functionality

[Dee Johnson]

If I understand correctly you want to search for a literal 'Smith' and not 
any %Smith% which yeilds results containing Smith as well?  If you have a 
column for last name already you can just alter your find query in the 
controller to only bring back that specific item 

$this->Model->find('all', array('conditions' => array('Model.lastname' => 
$searchterm)));
as opposed to 
$this->Model->find('all', array('conditions' => array('Model.lastname LIKE'  
=> '%' . $searchterm . '%')));
