Re: JS->Submit

Correction :: You can combine options of  FormHelper::submit(), JsBaseEngine::request(), and JsBaseEngine::event() .... my bad ;)

@aSh!Q's :: You can combine options of both FormHelper::submit(), JsBaseEngine::request(), and JsBaseEngine::request() when using Js->submit() which in turn ends up being many more options than the documentations for Js->submit() currently gives examples for. I believe if you were to leave the options array empty or at the very least the 'url' option, then yes, Js->submit() would probably default to the current 'controller' => 'action'. 

@David Cole :: Yes, in fact I did consider using JQuery .submit(); Cake's helpers are extremely useful and eliminate the need for lots of excess and most times unnecessary code (but you already knew that :p ). Setting 'Js' => array('JQuery') in your $helpers array will utilize the JQuery Engine when using Cake's Js Helper (I believe it defaults to JQuery of no engine is declared). Soooo,  Cake's Js->submit() is pretty much exactly the same as JQuery's .submit() the only difference being one requires much more coding than the other :)

This:

<?=$this->Js->submit('Go', array('url' => array('action' => 'admin_getWeeks'), 'update' => '#weekList'));?> 

Would essentially translate to:

$("#submit-621700652").bind("click", function (event) {$.ajax({data:$("#submit-621700652").closest("form").serialize(), dataType:"html", success:function (data, textStatus) {$("#weekList").html(data);}, type:"post", url:"\/acclaim\/admin\/shopHours\/getWeeks"});
return false;}); Just sayin' ;) Anyhow, adding 'buffer' => false to the options array took care of the problem.  Thanks for the help.  - ED

Have you considered going with JQuery and using the .submit() ?

I recently switched computers and for whatever reason I decided to go with WampServer on this machine instead of XAMPP which I have been using up until now. 

I have a JS request that seems to have stopped working once I switched. 

[code]

<?=$this->Form->create(false);?>

<div class="shopHourDate">

<?php

echo $this->Form->input('date', array(

'label' => false,

'type' => 'date',

'dateFormat' => 'MY',

'minYear' => date('Y'),

'maxYear' => date('Y') + 1,

));

?>

</div>

<div id="go-button">

<?=$this->Js->submit('Go', array('url' => array('action' => 'admin_getWeeks'), 'update' => '#weekList'));?>

<?=$this->Form->end();?>

</div>

[/code]

I'm (relatively) sure that it worked just fine as written above however, now when submitting the form instead of making the request and updating the element #weekList the form submits to 'ShopHours/admin_add'.

I'm sure it's purely coincidence that this occurred at the same time I switched servers but I'm unable to see what I'm overlooking here. 

Thanks in advance,
