Re: Problem with form helper

I've never seen it done that way before. I always do it like this:

(simplified view)
$n = empty($this->data['Contact']) ? 0 : count($this-
>data['Contact']);
for ($i = 0; $i<$n; $i++) {
echo $form->input("Contact.$i.name");
}

This way the data is like this:

$data = array(
'Contact' => array(
0 => array('id' => ..., 'name' => ...),
1 => array('id' => ..., 'name' => ...),
2 => array('id' => ..., 'name' => ...),
...
)
);

...works fine.
