Start working from a simple base. Add FormHelper to your application
then try the following:
<?php
echo $form->create('User');
echo $form->input('username');
echo $form->input('password');
echo $form->end('Login');
?>
You will need to rework your jQuery so the IDs match the generated
HTML. Small steps at first, and once things are working you can
elaborate again.
