Here's an updated function to support the good Dr Lecter's idea of resetting the cookie each time the user logs in. I'm fairly sure it works... function loginFromCookie() { $cookie = $this-Cookie-read('Auth.User'); if (!is_null($cookie)) { if ($this-Auth-login($cookie)) { //

Accessing views from Cake - problem with array nesting

Hi all, I've just spent a hour or so tracking down an issue before realising it was caused by pointing cake at a view instead of a database table. In general views work with Cake, but in some seemingly random cases they fail. The problem i've run into was identified and a patch suggested in

Making Paginator first sort direction DESC

Hi all, Paginator's great, like the rest of Cake, but there's one little thing I haven't been able to work out. By default when you click on a column to sort it will sort ASC (ascending), but i'd like the first sort to be DESC (descending). The options suggest this might be possible, but I

1.2 validation - may be blank, but if filled in must be a decimal

Hi all, I have some data that's optional, but if it's filled in it must be a decimal. Is there an easy way to do this with 1.2 validation? My current though is that I might create a custom validation rule, and from their if the field isn't blank then send it through to the built in validation

on the fraction digits, or allow scientific notation as well. For example, if you wanted a positive number with maximum 2 digits after the decimal point then you'd use something like: '/^[0-9]+(\\.[0-9]{,2})?$/' On Mar 28, 8:12 am, Tim W [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: In case anyone else wants
