Re: Updating is creating new record
Just remember that updateAll does not sanitize inputs like save and saveField does and so may open your app to SQL injection attacks unless you manually sanitize the user inputs.

Re: Updating is creating new record
Thanks for all the replies. I got it working by using updateAll, as Sergei suggested. Still not sure why it wasn't working, but at least it is now! Thanks again for all the help.

Re: Updating is creating new record
Try this $user['User']['id']=... $user['User']['field']=... $user['User']['anotherfield']=... $this->save($user); also there is updateAll() function.

Re: Updating is creating new record
Did you still use the setting of the id in the model first? [code] $this->id = $user['User']['id']; $this->saveField( ... ); [/code] It should work!

Thanks John, but saveField isn't doing the job either.

Re: Updating is creating new record
Can you just use $this->saveField('friend_list', $friendslist) instead of $this->save()?

Updating is creating new record
I'm trying to update a field in a record, using the following code: $this->id = $user['User']['id']; $this->set('friends_list', $friendslist); $this->save(); The record with id $user['User']['id'] exists in the db; I'm just trying to update the friends_list field. When I do this, though, it creates a whole new record - I thought that if id was set, then it updated the record with that id? If I explicitly set id, e.g.: $this->set(array('friends_list => $friendslist, $id => $user['User'] ['id'])); if complains that a record with the primary key $user['User']['id'] already exists. Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong? Thanks! Check out the new CakePHP Questions site http://cakeqs.org and help others with their CakePHP related questions.
