how to create form in cake php - cakephp

Question

I am very new in cake php, i want to know how to create form in cake php,please describe,when we go to create a form then what i have to do,like create model and controller everything

Answer 1

In the view file, something like this would work:
<?php
echo $this->Form->create();
echo $this->Form->input('firstname', array('label' => 'Enter your first name:'));
echo $this->Form->input('email', array('label' => 'Enter your email address:'));
echo $this->Form->input('password', array('label' => 'Enter your password:'));
echo $this->Form->end('Save');
?>
In your controller:
if($this->request->is('post')){
$this->User->save( $this->request->data );
}
You can apply some sort of validation in your model, look in the documentation for that.

Answer 2

Best option to learn about cakephp is it's own doc book
But I'm providing you some basic code to create form :
$this->Form->create('ModelName');
$this->Form->input('ModelName.fieldname', array('type'=>'text', 'label'=>'Modified-Name'));
$this->Form->end(__('Submit'));
Here array('type'=>'text'...): type shows which type of input field you want.
(...'label'=>'Modified-Name'): By default it shows field text as fieldname but by using 'label' you can modify your field text.

Answer 3

$this->form->create('controlpage',
array(
'action'=>'controll',
'class'=>'class',
'enctype' => 'multipart/form-data',
'onsubmit'=>'return valid()'
));
