Re: Multiple forms in the same view not working

Hi there.
Well i need some help in there for my first cakephp tasks.
For a community website i am working on, i have a login form included
in views on top of all pages as an element.Then i have a specific page
wich you all know, the register page for adding new members to Mysql
Database ("Users" table). In that specific page i have an issue to
make both of forms working. Well i tried my auth component with the
login form it just worked fine, but when creating register page i
found out some problems on informing database of sent data.

Well here is my code if you can help some :

in Login form element called from layout view:

echo $form->create('User', array('url' => array('controller' =>
'users', 'action' => 'login')));
echo $form->input('username',array('class'=>'inputs2'));
echo $form->input('password',array('class'=>'inputs2'));
echo $form->submit('Login',array('class'=>'submits'));
echo $form->end();

in register.ctp :
echo $form->create('User', array('url' => array('controller' =>
'users', 'action' => 'register')));
echo $form->input('type_user',array('class'=>'inputs2'));
echo $form->input('username',array('class'=>'inputs2'));
echo $form->input('password',array('class'=>'inputs2'));
echo $form->input('password_confirm',array('class'=>'inputs2'));
echo $form->input('email',array('class'=>'inputs2'));
echo $form->submit('Register',array('class'=>'submits'));
echo $form->end();

my register action on users controller :

function register() {
if (!empty($this->data)) {
if ($this->data['User']['password'] == $this->data['User']
['password_confirm']) {
$this->User->query("INSERT INTO users
(id,username,password,email,type_user) VALUES ('','".$this->data
['username']."','".$this->data['password']."','".$this->data
['email']."','".$this->data['type_user']."')");
$this->render();
}
}
}
