For an action in my controller that needs no view, I'm disabling the layout and template like this:
$this->autoRender = false;
And it's all good. However, in that same action I'm echoing a 'pass' or 'fail' to signal my view of the result. The problem is a bunch of text is also echoed: (my 'fail' or 'pass' at the very end)
<!--

<!--

<!DOCTYPE html>

This is echoed 8 o 9 times.
How can I get rid of that so only my 'pass' or 'fail' are echoed?
Can you help?
I've tried
$this->layout = false; and
$this->render(false);
Thank you so much.
Update:**
Just noted it also echoes a bunch of javascrip code out of nowhere, (Removed < for pasting here) e.g.: pre class="cake-error" a href="javascript:void(0);" onclick="document.getElementById('cakeErr5035af14add0c-trace').style.display = (document.getElemen..

First of all I will paste here a fragment from cakeapi under http://api.cakephp.org/class/controller about how autoRender works:
autoRender boolean
Set to true to automatically render the view after action logic.
So this:
$this->autoRender = false ;
will generally turns off rendering the view but just after action logic is done. So thats why you get the echos from your action logic. You can whether remove your echo's from your code to prevent showing them or try this schema,
if something is wrong:
$this->Session->setFlash('Error');
$this->redirect(array('action' => 'your_error_page'));
which will move you to ur error page with Error string as a Flash text, or when its all fine:
$this->Session->setFlash('Its fine dude!');
$this->redirect(array('action' => 'your_ok_page'));

I don't know what exactly is happening with my CakePHP app. It worked last week and I have literally changed nothing with that particular file.
When I use find 'all' in my controller it dumps a semi-colon in my view even if there is nothing in the view file.
Here is my code
$evts = $this->Event->find('all');
There is nothing in my view file. I don't know if it makes a difference but I'm using a json view.
As requested here is the complete code for the action
public function search(){
$this->Event->recursive = 2;
$conditions = array();
if(!empty($this->request->query['name'])){
$conditions = array('Event.name LIKE ' => "%" . str_replace(" ","%", $this->request->query['name']) . "%");
}
if(!empty($this->request->query['home'])){
$conditions = array('Event.home_team_id' => $this->request->query['home']);
}
if(!empty($this->request->query['away'])){
$conditions = array('Event.away_team_id' => $this->request->query['away']);
}
$limit = 25;
if(!empty($this->request->query['limit'])){
$limit = $this->request->query['limit'];
}
//$evts = $this->Event->find('all',array('conditions'=>array($conditions),'order' => array('Event.start_time'),'limit'=>$limit));
$evts = $this->Event->find('all');
$this->set('events',$evts);
}
Everything in the view has been commented out ... but here is the code anyway
$results = array();
$i = 0;
foreach ($events as $event) {
$results[$i]['id'] = $event['Event']['id'];
$results[$i]['label'] = $event['Event']['name'] . "(" . date_format(date_create($event['Event']['start_time']), 'D, jS M Y') . ")";
$results[$i]['value'] = $event['Event']['name'];
$results[$i]['home_team_name'] = $event['HomeTeam']['name'];
$results[$i]['away_team_name'] = $event['AwayTeam']['name'];
$results[$i]['sport_name'] = $event['Sport']['name'];
$results[$i]['tournament_name'] = $event['Tournament']['name'];
$results[$i]['start_time'] = $event['Event']['start_time'];
$results[$i]['img'] = $event['Event']['img_path'];
$results[$i]['listener_count'] = 0; //TODO Get the follower count
$i++;
}
echo json_encode($results);

If you changed nothing with that particular file then perhaps you have installed callbacks (either in the controller or in the model) that echo that ";". Look for 'afterFind' calls...
Search your model and your controller folders for "echo statement". In fact you should search your entire app folder except for the Views folder.
I am writing a mail function as a module in joomla 3. e mail works fine, but when i reload the page and insert a different email and send, but it seemed to return the previous email by JRequest::getVar function. Is there a way to solve this issue? thanks in advance..
this is the code i used:
<?php
defined('_JEXEC') or die('Direct Access to this location is not allowed.');
require_once(dirname(__FILE__) . DS . 'helper.php');
//declaration
$input = JFactory::getApplication()->input;
$form_send = $input->get('form_send', 'notsend');
$fanme = $input->get('firstName');
$lname = $input->get('lastinput');
$email = $input->get('email', 0 , 'STRING');
$mail=false;
$emailexist=false;
echo '<script>
var php_var = "chk is first:'.$email.'";
alert(php_var);
</script>';
switch ($form_send) {
case 'send':
if ((is_null($fanme) || is_null($lname) || is_null($email)) || (!filter_var($email, FILTER_VALIDATE_EMAIL))) {
echo '<div> Fields are empty or not valid. <br></div>';
} else {
$mail = ModLittleContactHelper::SendMail($email, $fanme, $lname);
echo '<script>
var php_var = "chk when mail sending:'.$email.'";
alert(php_var);
</script>';
$input = JFactory::getApplication();//i have tried $app also
$input ->setUserState('mod_mycontact.email', null);
}
//echo $respond

Since you're trying to run your code on Joomla 3, there are a few things that are wrong. Below os your code, corrected where I was able to correct it. Now you have to test it in your module environment with the class being instantiated (in other words, test the below code in your module).
<?php
defined('_JEXEC') or die('Direct Access to this location is not allowed.');
require_once(dirname(__FILE__) . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR . 'helper.php');
//declaration
$doc = JFactory::getDocument();
$app = JFactory::getApplication();
$input = $app->input;
$form_send = $input->get('form_send', 'notsend');
$fanme = $input->get('firstName');
$lname = $input->get('lastinput');
$email = $input->get('email', 0 , 'STRING');
$mail=false;
$emailexist=false;
$doc->addScriptDeclaration('
var php_var = "chk is first:'.$email.'";
alert(php_var);
');
switch ($form_send) {
case 'send':
if ((is_null($fanme) || is_null($lname) || is_null($email)) || (!filter_var($email, FILTER_VALIDATE_EMAIL))) {
echo '<div> Fields are empty or not valid. <br></div>';
} else {
$mail = ModLittleContactHelper::SendMail($email, $fanme, $lname);
$doc->addScriptDeclaration('
var php_var = "chk when mail sending:'.$email.'";
alert(php_var);');
$app->setUserState('mod_littlecontact.email', null);
}
//echo $respond
if (!$mail) {
echo 'Error sending email:';
require(JModuleHelper::getLayoutPath('mod_littlecontact', 'default_tmpl'));
break;
}else{
require(JModuleHelper::getLayoutPath('mod_littlecontact', 'sendok_tmpl'));
break;
}
default:
require(JModuleHelper::getLayoutPath('mod_littlecontact', 'default_tmpl'));
unset($var);
}
?>
First, JRequest class is deprecated in J3. You should use JInput:
$input = JFactory::getApplication()->input;
$your_var = $input->get('your_var');
Then, regarding the email, you probably need to unset the session variables when the success is achieved (mail sent), or in other words, when you don't need them any longer.
$app = JFactory::getApplication();
// your_var is the variable you want to unset
$app->setUserState('mod_your_module.your_var', null);
Hope it helps
you can use this code
$email = $input->get('email', 0 , 'STRING','');
4th argument for the default value,
I am using the csvUpload behavior of the Utils plugin by CakeDC, on a CakePHP 2.2.1 install.
I have it working great it's processing a rather large csv successfully. However there are two fields in my table / Model that would be considered fixed, as they are based on ID's from from associated models that are not consistent. So I need to get these fixed values via variables which is easy enough.
So my question is, how do I use the fixed fields aspect of csvUpload? I have tried that following and many little variation, which obviously didn't work.
public function upload_csv($Id = null) {
$unique_add = 69;
if ( $this->request->is('POST') ) {
$records_count = $this->Model->find( 'count' );
try {
$fixed = array('Model' => array('random_id' => $Id, 'unique_add' => $unique_add));
$this->Model->importCSV($this->request->data['Model']['CsvFile']['tmp_name'], $fixed);
} catch (Exception $e) {
$import_errors = $this->Model->getImportErrors();
$this->set( 'import_errors', $import_errors );
$this->Session->setFlash( __('Error Importing') . ' ' . $this->request->data['Model']['CsvFile']['name'] . ', ' . __('column name mismatch.') );
$this->redirect( array('action'=>'import') );
}
$new_records_count = $this->Model->find( 'count' ) - $records_count;
$this->Session->setFlash(__('Successfully imported') . ' ' . $new_records_count . ' records from ' . $this->request->data['Model']['CsvFile']['name'] );
$this->redirect(array('plugin'=>'usermgmt', 'controller'=>'users', 'action'=>'dashboard'));
}
}
Any help would be greatly appreciated as I have only found 1 post concerning this behavior when I searching...
I made my custom method to achieve the same task. Define the following method in app\Plugin\Utils\Model\Behavior
public function getCSVData(Model &$Model, $file, $fixed = array())
{
$settings = array(
'delimiter' => ',',
'enclosure' => '"',
'hasHeader' => true
);
$this->setup($Model, $settings);
$handle = new SplFileObject($file, 'rb');
$header = $this->_getHeader($Model, $handle);
$db = $Model->getDataSource();
$db->begin($Model);
$saved = array();
$data = array();
$i = 0;
while (($row = $this->_getCSVLine($Model, $handle)) !== false)
{
foreach ($header as $k => $col)
{
// get the data field from Model.field
$col = str_replace('.', '-', trim($col));
if (strpos($col, '.') !== false)
{
list($model,$field) = explode('.', $col);
$data[$i][$model][$field] = (isset($row[$k])) ? $row[$k] : '';
}
else
{
$col = str_replace(' ','_', $col);
$data[$i][$Model->alias][$col] = (isset($row[$k])) ? $row[$k] : '';
}
}
$is_valid_row = false;
foreach($data[$i][$Model->alias] as $col => $value )
{
if(!empty($data[$i][$Model->alias][$col]))
{
$is_valid_row = true;
}
}
if($is_valid_row == true)
{
$i++;
$data = Set::merge($data, $fixed);
}
else
{
unset($data[$i]);
}
}
return $data;
}
And you can use it using:
$csv_data = $this->Model->getCSVData($this->request->data['Model']['CsvFile']['tmp_name'], $fixed);
Here $csv_data will contain an array of all of those records from the csv file which are not empty and with the fixed field in each record index.
So as I was telling Arun, I answered my own question and figured it out. I was looking to broad instead of really examining what was in front of me. I started running some debugging and figured it out.
First of all, $unique_add = 69 is seen as an int, duh. In order for it to be added to the csv it need to viewed as a string. So it simply becomes, $unique_add = '69'.
I couldn't enter the value of $Id directly into the fixed array. So I just had to perform a simple find to get the value I needed.
$needed_id = $this->Model->find('first', array(
'condition'=>array('Model.id'=>$Id)
)
);
$random_id = $needed_id['Model']['id'];
Hopefully this won't be needed to help anyone because hopefully no one else will make this silly mistake. But one plus... Now there's actually more than one post on the internet documenting the use of fixed fields in the CakeDC Utils plugin.

And I always get "Sorry, there is no property with the submitted ID." and I don't see the problem.
you should have a look on this code :
function __view($id = null) {

$this->Session->setFlash(__('Invalid Calculation.', true));
$this->redirect(array('action'=>'index'));
}
$data = $this->Calculation->read(null, $id));
return $data;
}
