Re: Identifying the moment of successful login using AuthComponent

Nevermind, the book does cover this situation.
http://book.cakephp.org/view/248/AuthComponent-Variables#autoRedirect-395

The key to the puzzle is understanding that when your login()
executes, your form contents have _already_ been processed by
AuthComponent...so the login event condition is when (FORM_NOT_EMPTY
&& CREDENTIALS_NOT_ALREADY_REJECTED).

I swear, I did read the docs before I asked in the first place ;)
