Is your app 1.3 based? The short answer is override the blackHole callback, check the $reason, and then do whatever you want. AFAIK that's the default behavior (meaning redirect on blackhole) in 2.0 anyway: https://github.com/cakephp/cakephp/blob/2.0/lib/Cake/Controller/Component/SecurityComponent.php#L276 If you want to be nice - You may want to do some store-form-data-to- cookie/persistentStorage js so that after reloading the page you have the possibility to repopulate the form with the data they previously entered.
