All,
I a newbie to cake and need your expert help. I've created a db schema
then baked it (used cake naming convention all the way). See below the
schema:
users {id(PK), name, lastname, username, password, email,
department_id(FK), parent_id(FK)**}
**parent_id refers to the users table recursively (a user can
supervise another user). When I bake it to create all the CRUD
functions It seems to work fine but then when I try to ADD a new user
the drop down menu do not populate itself with the data I entered
manually in the database.
Funily enough, when I debug() the parentUsers table generated by cake,
it returns the values I was expecting in the dropdown element.
See the bake generated code below:
thanks
********** View*************
<?php
debug($parentUsers);
echo $this->Form->input('name');
echo $this->Form->input('last_name');
echo $this->Form->input('username');
echo $this->Form->input('password');
echo $this->Form->input('email');
echo $this->Form->input('department_id');
echo $this->Form->input('parent_id');
?>
****************************
********** Controller *************
.
$departments = $this->User->Department->find('list');
$parentUsers = $this->User->ParentUser->find('list');
$this->set(compact('departments', 'parentUsers'));
.
.
.****************************
********** Model *************
var $belongsTo = array(
'ParentUser' => array(
'className' => 'User',
'foreignKey' => 'parent_id',
'conditions' => '',
'fields' => '',
'order' => ''
)
);
