Re: how to do Multi-Row Edit ?
Update: I've managed to get this article submitted to the Bakery - but I have no idea how long it will take for them to review and publish it. I will wait a week, and if I don't hear anything by then, I'll post it here. Steve T.

Re: how to do Multi-Row Edit ?
What a timely post! I'm doing the same thing...showing a table of data and allowing the user to edit it. By using this 'hack' will CakePHP handle the insert without any additional considerations? --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Cake PHP group.

Re: how to do Multi-Row Edit ?
You would have to use a custom model to overwrite some functionality
(cake 1.x):
E.g
class MyHtml extends Html
{
...
function setFormTag($tagValue) {
$parts = explode(/, $tagValue);
$this-model = $parts[0];
$this-field= array_pop($parts);
// We add a class attribute to indicate the index of the model
if (count($parts) 1)
$this-modelIndex = $parts[1];
else
$this-modelIndex = null;
}
...
function tagValue($fieldName) {
$this-setFormTag($fieldName);
if ($this-modelIndex !== null)
{
// This assumes that your data is like so:
// data = array('Model'=array(array('Model'=array(/* data
*/; // Default cake
// which can be obtained with $this-data['Model'] = $this-
Model-findAll();
if (isset($this-params['data'][$this-model][$this-
modelIndex][$this-model][$this-field])) {
return h($this-params['data'][$this-model][$this-
modelIndex][$this-model][$this-field]);
} elseif(isset($this-data[$this-model][$this-modelIndex]
[$this-model][$this-field])) {
return h($this-data[$this-model][$this-modelIndex]
[$this-model][$this-field]);
}
}
else
{
return parent::tagValue($fieldName);
}
}
...
}
In your view, you can then do the following:
?php foreach ($this-data['Product'] as $i = $rec) : ?
tr
td?= $rec['Product']['name'] ?/td
td?= $myhtml-input(Product/$i/qty) ?/td
/tr
?php endforeach; ?
Please note that this code was not tested.
Also, the id of your input will become Product0Qty, Product1Qty, etc.
Please contribute your final solution. There are many with the same
issue :S.
Thanks.

Re: how to do Multi-Row Edit ?

Re: how to do Multi-Row Edit ?
in your provided code,
we might to update helper.php
var $tags = array('link' = 'a href=%s %s%s/a',
'mailto' = 'a
href=mailto:%s; %s%s/a',
'form' = 'form %s',
'input' = 'input
name=data[%s][%s] %s/',
'hidden' = 'input type=hidden name=data[%s][%s] %s/',

Re: how to do Multi-Row Edit ?
CC96AI,
You're right about modifying the tag templates.
There would have to be more changes than the ones i mentioned above.
However, it's a starting point :).
As for it being a good idea, you can implement your own tags. Since
you're subclassing HtmlHelper you can redefine the $tags class
attribute to have your own templates. Also, you would need to modify
the rendering of those templates.
