Re: JsHelper request question

Hi,

I had the same question few days ago.
find the solution, (I give my example of form creation you can use
your way)

echo $this->Form->create(null,array(
'default' => false,
'inputDefaults' => array(
'label' => false,
'div' => false
)
));

echo $this->Form->input('dateFrom', array(
'id' => 'dateFrom',
));

echo $this->Form->input('dateTo', array(
'id' => 'dateTo',
));

echo $this->Form->end(array(
'label' => 'Get Interval',
'id' => 'get-interval'
));

$this->Js->get('#get-track')->event('click', $this->Js->request(array(
'controller' => 'yoursController',
'action' => 'search'
),array(
'update' => 'target',
'dataExpression' => true,
'method' => 'post',
'data' => $js->serializeForm(array('isForm' => false, 'inline' =>
true))
)));

and all values of input what is declared in form you can access in
controller $this->data['dateFrom'], $this->data['dateTo'];

I create form with null so that's why in request I use controller
option. You can create form and put controller so then in request you
don't need.
I hope it helps.
