Aight.. code it is
Add a link somewhere in the task view such as:
*echo $html->link('Add
note','/note/add/$task_id_variable',array('title'=>'Add note'));*
(which could be even sexier if you used an array for the link, but let's
leave it like this to start)
Then, in the note controller:
*function add($task_id){*
*..codecodecode*
*$this->set(compact('task_id'));*
*...codecodecode*
*}*
Finally, in your add note view:
*echo $form->hidden('task_id',array('value' => $task_id));*
*
*
Let us know how it went :)
