Re: setFlash() appending a "1"

Thanks for the prompt replies, guys! I am using $this->Session-
>setFlash() in my controller after a successful form submission, then
redirecting, where I echo $session->flash(). I removed the echo, and
all is good! I can't believe I hadn't thought of that before, as I
spent an inordinate amount of time banging my head against the wall.

Hah, I guess I'll have to keep the echo in mind when migrating to
1.3! I'm only using $session->flash() in a single place in
default.ctp, so no big issue there.

CakePHP rawks!
