Try this
input($j.'.OfferedSubject.Course', array
('multiple'=>true)); ?>
If the form helper is building the select right, the above will change
it from a single select to multiple select.

Re: incorrect resulting array from a multiselect option problem please help
sir Webbedit heres my rel:
Subject hasMany OfferedSubject
OfferedSubject HABTM Course
heres my controller without the save:
function offeredSubjectAdd($subjectId = null, $lastSec = null, $numSec
= null){
debug($this->data);
if(isset($this->data['numSec'])){
$this->Session->write('OfferedSubject.numSec',$this->data
['numSec']);
}
$courses = $this->College->listCourses();
$subjects = $this->Subject->find('first',array(
'conditions' => array(
'Subject.id =' => $subjectId
)
)
);
$colleges = $this->Campus->listColleges();
$this->set('numSec',$this->Session->read('OfferedSubject.numSec'));
$this->set(compact('courses', 'subjects',
'colleges','subjectId',
'lastSec'));
$this->layout = 'ajax';
}
heres my view:
codeBlock('window.location =
"'.$url.'"'); ?>
flash(); ?>
form(array(
'type' => 'post',
'options'=>array(
'url'=>array(
'controller'=>$this->params['controller'],
'action'=>'offeredSubjectAdd'.'/'.$subjectId.'/'.$lastSec.'/'.
$numSec
),
'model'=>'OfferedSubject',
'update'=>'results'
)
));
?>
>
input($j.'.section'); ?>
input($j.'.days'); ?>
input($j.'.times'); ?>
input($j.'.room'); ?>
input($j.'.limits'); ?>
input($j.'.gender_flag',array(
'type'=>'select',
'options'=>
array(
'M'=>'M',
'F'=>'F'
),
'empty'=>'Choose One'
)
);
?>
input($j.'.college_id');?>
input($j.'.OfferedSubject.Course'); ?>
end('Submit');?>
i followed what you suggest but just in the
input($j.'.OfferedSubject.Course'); ?> part but
instead of having a multiselect it changes to a normal select option
the cookbook said that:
"A more likely scenario with a HABTM relationship would include a
set to allow multiple selections. For example, a Recipe can
have multiple Tags assigned to it. In this case, the data is pulled
out of the model the same way, but the form input is declared slightly
different. The tag name is defined using the ModelName convention."
thats why i only used
input('Course'); ?> before
and now im still stuck with the resulting array...
its been days now,still no luck; (
@brian, i did not receive your message.sorry
@webbedit, thanx for your help, i want to hear more from you sir..

Re: incorrect resulting array from a multiselect option problem please help
As my post states, I do not believe you can save multiple
OfferedSubject at once, each having their own HABTM Course. You would
need to create a form which produces an array as shown above.
Now I am have no idea about your schema as your form obviously
includes data from Subject and Section models which you have not
mentioned, it would be be helpful to know more about your schema, it's
associations, the controller action which passes the data to this view
and possibly a link to see the form online.
However, I will attempt to give you an idea of what you're trying to
achieve (this assumes your passing a $OfferedSubjects array from the
controller which contains a row for each OfferedSubject).
$value): ?>
>
input($key.'.OfferedSubject.section'); ?>
input($key.'.OfferedSubject.days'); ?>
input($key.'.OfferedSubject.times'); ?>
input($key.'.OfferedSubject.room'); ?>
input($key.'.OfferedSubject.limits'); ?>
input($key.'.OfferedSubject.gender_flag',array
(
'type'=>'select',
'options'=>array('M'=>'M','F'=>'F'),
'empty'=>'Choose One'
));?>
input($key.'.OfferedSubject.college_id');?>
input($key.'.OfferedSubject.Course'); ?>
I'm not sure how the automagic will behave when prefixing field names
with the numerical array key, but the above would output the right
data array that could then be looped through in the controller calling
saveAll() for each OfferedSubject saving it's HABTM Course at the same
time.
Doing this alone is fairly advanced for a CakePHP newbie, then taking
into account the fact your submitting this via Ajax ups the
complication further, good luck!

Re: incorrect resulting array from a multiselect option problem please help
oh thank God someone did read my post and answer it. thanx webbedIT! but how could i have the array you presented if i want to maintain the same view as i did on my post? or can you share me any idea on how to go about saving multiple OfferedSubject at once, each having their own HABTM Course. please help.. learning_cakephp --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "CakePHP" group.

Re: incorrect resulting array from a multiselect option problem please help
Wow, that was a long post ... not many people will stck around to read all of that :o) >From what I have read it appears you are trying to save multiple OfferedSubject at once, each having their own HABTM Course. For starters, you simply can't use one save call to do this. You can use saveAll() to save one OfferedSubject along with it's HABTM data, but not many OfferedSubject and their individual HABTM data. If you want to stick with the same view then you would have to loop through the build the data array so you could then loop through it in the controller saving each OfferedSubject along with it's HABTM Course data. the data array would have to be Array ( [0] => Array ( [OfferedSubject] => Array ( [section] => [days] => [times] => [room] => [limits] => [gender_flag] => [college_id] => 1 [college_id] => 1 ) [Course] => Array ( [Course] => Array ( [3] => 1 [7] => 1 [12] => 1 ) ) ) [1] => Array ( [OfferedSubject] => Array ( [section] => [days] => [times] => [room] => [limits] => [gender_flag] => [college_id] => 1 [college_id] => 1 ) [Course] => Array ( [Course] => Array ( [5] => 1 ) ) ) [2] => Array ( [OfferedSubject] => Array ( [section] => [days] => [times] => [room] => [limits] => [gender_flag] => [college_id] => 1 [college_id] => 1 ) [Course] => Array ( [Course] => Array ( [2] => 1 [9] => 1 ) ) ) ) The way you have it, each time you echo your Course input field it is overwriting the previous Course input as they've all got the same id and name.
