Yeah,
I do realize having session is easier, but I'm practicing not to use
sessions so much. I did manage to use query in URL using get instead
of post (well, apparently if i use post, i will have to use sessions
later on, since there will be no more data to be passed on after going
to different pages). Here's what I have in my controller and view:
Partial APP/controllers/parts_controller.php:
function index($keyword = null)
{
if (isset($this->params['url']['keyword']))
$keyword = $this->params['url']['keyword'];
if ($keyword) {
$conditions = array("or" => array("name" => "LIKE
%".$keyword."%",
"part_number" => "LIKE %".$keyword."%",
"part_nokia" => "LIKE %".$keyword."%"));
$this->set('parts', $this->paginate('Part',
$conditions));
} else {
$this->Part->recursive = 2;
$this->set('parts', $this->paginate());
}
}
Partial APP/views/parts/index.ctp:
<?php
if (isset($this->params['url']['keyword']))
$currentUrl = $this->params['url']['keyword'];
else if (isset($this->params['pass']))
$currentUrl = $this->params['pass'];
else
$currentUrl = array();
echo $paginator->options(array('url' => $currentUrl));
?>
Now, my problem is the URL looks APP/parts?keyword=<input query> when
searching for the first time, and when I click on the next page (since
I use $this->params['pass'] in the view) it looks APP/parts/index/
<keyword>/page:<page_number>. A little ugly workaround, I think.
What I'm trying to do next is I want to make the URL to look APP/parts/
index/keyword:<input query>/. Is this possible? Because I have another
controller where there is more than 1 input box, and the address
becomes APP/controllers?
keyword=<query>&anotherkeyword=<another_query>, and with the current
solution I have, it no longer works, since index() only accepts one
field. I think if the URL can look APP/controllers/index/
keyword:<query>/keyword2:<another_query>, it will look better, and
will be easier to manage in my controller.
I would be very grateful for your help.
Thank you.
