Re: How to retrieve data which is posted to secure page

Assuming you are using Auth, with all the defaults...

when the user goes to /controller/secureform, assuming its not in the allowed list, the user will be automatically redirected to the login form... on successful login it will redirect them back to the secure form with the auth session filled in. You can of course do further checks if only a specific class of user should access the secure form.

Much nicer than having somebody fill in a form, and then force them to login.

If you absolutely must do it this way, have the form action on the secure form store the data in a session, redirect to the login form, and on successful login process the data from the session instead of from $this->data

beinng shown a form that you fill in only to be presented with a "you
must login to submit this form" message.  Hmmmm, no thanks.

Also if the data is to eventually be secure (i.e. encrypted) how is it
secure when sent from http?!?
