I can't tell you why it happen, but I can tell you how I work with editing an existing record.
When a record is chosen for editing, I store the record id in the session. Upon saving the record I take the id from the session. I don't rely on the record id being in the url. If I did that, then the user could easily change it upon submitting the form, which would be a bad thing :) Hope this helps you on the way, John On Jun 14, 3:34 am, Ed Propsner <[email protected]> wrote: > I notice that when I submit a form to a url such as > > http://mysite.com/controller/action/25 > > If validation fails on the first attempt the form reloads under the exact > same url and retains all of $this->data > but if the validation fails on subsequent attempts the form reloads > but the record id gets dropped from the url and the only info left in > $this->data is the value > of the submitted form element and that's all. > > What causes this?
