I love the cakephp framework, but I'm trying to create a primarily javascript/ajax application.
Given the way cakephp assigns variables for its forms (ex data [Inventory][name]), how can I submit this data in javascript/ajax and parse it in the javascript so that it will end up as a valid hash array in my controller? The fields are being submitted as JSON strings currently: "data[Inventory][name]" => "Ladle" "data[Inventory][type]" => "Spoon" Is there a way I can convert this inside the javascript before I submit it via ajax so that once it gets to my controller I just have to json_decode and it ends up as $data['Inventory']['name'] = 'Ladle'; making it easy to save the data through $this->Inventory->save($this- >data)? I have no problem getting the data from the controller, it's posting it to the controller that I can't get it in the cakephp convention format without seemingly having to write a complicated parser that would dissect the data[Inventory][name] strings into json objects.
