Please help me, I am a beginner.
I am using the form helper to create a form like this:
echo $form->create('Category');
echo $form->input('name');
echo $form->input('description', array('rows' => '3'));
echo $form->end('Save Category');
This works fine, but there are 2 parts of the html which bother me:
<input type="hidden" name="_method" value="POST" />
<form id="CategoryAddForm" method="post" action="/admin/categories/
add">
<label for="CategoryName">Name</label>
<input name="data[Category][name]" type="text" maxlength="30"
value="" id="CategoryName" />
<div class="input text required"></div>
<label for="CategoryDescription">Description</label>
<textarea name="data[Category][description]" cols="30" rows="3"
maxlength="128" id="CategoryDescription" ></textarea>
<div class="input text"></div>
<input type="submit" value="Save Category" />
<div class="submit"></div>
</form>
1st Question: What is with the very first input before the opening of
the form? I don't think it is hurting, but why is it there?
2nd question: You can see that the div which is supposed to be
wrapping the input is actually output after the input, and is empty.
eg:
<input type="submit" value="Save Category" /> <div class="submit"></
div>
This is a problem for me because I would like to use this to style the
label and input field. I can't understand what I did wrong. Has this
happened to anyone before? How can I make it wrap the input like this
<div class="submit"><input type="submit" value="Save Category" /></
div>
I checked in /cake/version.txt and it says I am using 1.2.6
Any help would make me very happy. Thanks in advance.
