in your controller you should be able to get the referer for a particular page by
$this->referer($default); // see <http://api.cakephp.org/class_controller.html#e87c8e6edf53aadc511e3d050d71a494> then you can put that in a session $this->Session->write('referer', $this->referer()); to use later in a bunch of page changes or redirects note this is just typed info not tested production stuff On 1/31/07, [EMAIL PROTECTED] <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > usually the referrer is stored in the session, so after the login is > complete, you can retrieve it from the session and do the redirect > > On Jan 31, 12:19 pm, "Devraj Mukherjee" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hi Everyone, > > > > I am trying to create a authentication system for my application.
