Hello, I'm new to CakePhp and don't understand the next thing:
I'm going through the blog example
I have created 2 different Views for my blog posts
One is view.ctp and the other is edit.ctp
they are similair
<h1>Post <?php echo $post['Post']['id']; ?></h1>
<?php
echo $this->Form->create('Post', array('action'=>'edit'));
echo $this->Form->input('title');
echo $this->Form->input('body', array('rows' => '3'));
echo $this->Form->input('id', array('type' => 'hidden'));
echo $this->Form->end('Save Post');
?>
But what is strange that is when i open like http://mysite/cake/posts/edit/3
- form is populated, i see html
===================================================================
<form id="PostEditForm" accept-charset="utf-8" method="post" action="/
cake/posts/edit/3">
<div style="display:none;">
<input type="hidden" value="POST" name="_method">
</div>
<div class="input text required">
<label for="PostTitle">Title</label>
<input id="PostTitle" type="text" value="A title once again"
maxlength="100" name="data[Post][title]">
</div>
===================================================================
but when i open http://mysite/cake/posts/view/3 - there is no
population, but <h1>Post <?php echo $post['Post']['id']; ?></h1>
displays correct information from DB
and the html is looks like:
===================================================================
form id="PostEditForm" accept-charset="utf-8" method="post"
action="/cake/posts/edit">
<div style="display:none;">
<div class="input text required">
<label for="PostTitle">Title</label>
<input id="PostTitle" type="text" maxlength="100" name="data[Post]
[title]">
</div>
I'm trying to understand how to correctly auto-populate from with
corresponding text.
Thank you.
