I have been creating a basic CRUD app for an "employees" database.
>From my "index" page, I click on an employees name and it takes me to
the "edit" screen.
That would take me to www.exampledomain.com/employees/edit/22 (where
the employees unique id in the db is "22")
One of the database fields is "email", and it has an "email"
validation setup in the Employee model.
If I try to change the email to a purposely invalid email, I do get
the notification about invalid email string, and my url location is
still www.exampledomain.com/employees/edit/22
Now when I correct the invalid email, and re-submit the form, my url
switches to www.exampledomain.com/employees/edit , i get a message
that the employee has been updated, however it actually ADDS a new
employee, as if the id got lost/disconnected.
Here is the relevant code:
=================================================
models/employee.php:
class Employee extends AppModel
{
var $name = 'Employee';
var $validate = array(
'first_name' => array(
'rule' => array('minLength', 1)
),
'last_name' => array(
'rule' => array('minLength', 1)
),
'email' => array(
'rule' => array('email', true),
'message' => 'Please supply a valid email address.'
)
);
}
=================================================
controllers/employees_controller.php:
function edit($id = null) {
$this->Employee->id = $id;
if (empty($this->data)) {
$this->data = $this->Employee->read();
} else {
if ($this->Employee->save($this->data['Employee'])) {
$this->flash('The employee has been
updated.','/employees');
}
}
}
=================================================
views/employees/edit.ctp:
echo $form->create('Employee', array('action' => 'edit'));
echo $form->input('first_name');
echo $form->input('last_name');
echo $form->input('title');
echo $form->input('email');
echo $form->input('cell');
echo $form->input('extension');
echo $form->end('Edit Employee');
=================================================
