Hi guys,
I'm having some trouble saving data to my database.
Normally I would use the standard method and use something like:
if (!empty($this->data))
{
$this->data['User']['user_id'] = $this->userId;
$this->{$this->postType}->Photo->create();
if ($this->{$this->postType}->Photo->save($this->data))
{
$this->Redirect->flashSuccess("Photo Saved.",
array('controller'
=> 'client_albums', 'action' => 'view', $this->data['Photo']
['parent_id']));
}
else
{
$this->Redirect->flashWarning("Photo could not be
saved. Please
try again.");
}
The issue is that I'm getting the data back from a jquery uploader
called uploadify so $this->data is not set.
I'm a little bit new to CakePHP still so I'm hoping someone could help
out?
I've pasted my code below - the relevant function is admin_upload.
Many thanks,
Michael
