function add() {
if (!empty($this->data)) {
$this->Song->create();
if ($this->Song->save($this->data)) {
$this->Session->setFlash(__('The Song has been saved', true));
$this->redirect(array('action'=>'index'));
} else {
$this->Session->setFlash(__('The Song could not be saved. Please,
try again.', true));
}
}
$this->set('user_id', $this->Session->read('Auth.User.id'));
//$users = $this->Song->User->find('list');
$catalogs = $this->Song->Catalog->find('list');
$this->set(compact('catalogs'));
}
I was able to get the User ID to pass to the Add Form with your help
but where I am confused, is how to get the $catalogs = find array to
return only the current Auth.User.id related records.
I think if I can get this down, I will be well on my way to finishing
my project (crossing fingers)!
I appreciate your help greatly....
