Re: can't retrieve data from a form
That's not Cake being fussy - it's HTML. The helper just does the heavy lifting
of writing html for you, and a form has to open, contain elements and then
close. Anything not inside the form will be ignored.

Re: can't retrieve data from a form
The form needs to be created with a name and then it also needs to
end:
$form->create('FormName');
$form->input( ... etc etc );
$form->end('Submit');
And you should be able to access your form data via $this-
>data['FormName'][ inputfield ].

can't retrieve data from a form
hi,
i am trying to extract data from a form to update user information.
but somehow i cant extract the information from the form. i echo the
current information in input fields. everything works fine. the
echoing, the calling of my "updateProfile" function from my view:
input('created',
array('value' => $user['created'])); ?>
create('User', array('action' => 'updateProfile'));?
>
button('Sichern', array('type'
=> 'submit'));?>
my function that updates the given info
function updateProfile()
{
$updates = $this->User->findByUsername($this->Session-
>read('User.username'));
WORKS -> $updates['User']['firstname']=
'Trötde';
WORKS -> $updates['User']['lastname']='tröter';
sends NULL ->
//$updates['User']['username']=$this->data['User']
['username'];
sends NULL ->
$updates['User']['created']=$this->data['User']
['created'];
if ( $this->User->save($updates)){
$this->Session->setFlash('Profil aktualisiert');
$this->redirect(array('controller' => 'users',
'action' =>
'profile'));
}
else{
$this->Session->setFlash('Speichern
fehlgeschlagen');
$this->redirect(array('controller' => 'users',
'action' =>
'editprofile'));
}
}
now if i set values as string, like "trötde" above, it works. so the
saving process is correct. but if i wanna get the data from the form
with "$this->data['User']['created']" the value is null..
can u see the problem ?? thx :)
