Re: an add page redirects to other page holding some parameters

Quick reply! Got a meeting in 2 minutes...

Process Person::add() as normal, once you call $this->Person->save($this->data); call $id = $this->Person->id; (The id of the last inserted row)

Then do $this->redirect(array('controller' => 'subordinates', 'action' => 'add', $id)); (/subordinates/add/<id>) (function add($id=null) { .. } )

In subordinates, check if $id is set and if it's a valid person, if so - find the persons name, add it to your view for the user to see they are adding subordinates to that particular person.

Have the form submit to the same URL (/subordinates/add/<id>) and when saving it, if the id is present manually do $this->data['Subordinate']['person_id'] = $id;

Hope that made sense!

I have two models person and subordinate and I have the relationship  person has many subordinate what I want to do is that when I add the person when I click the submit button I will be redirected to add subordinate to that exact person I don't want a combox to choose between people ??

How could I do that ? and more specifically how could I hold the person Id and save it in the foreign key of subordinate ??

 I hope you understand what I mean

thank you all
