Hi,

I am trying to setup an Edit User authentication action.  I have authentication working fine for adding a user but when i try to edit a user i am running into a problem.  

If i try to edit a user when all information supplied passes validation it works fine (URL: http://localhost/users/edit/3).  If however i leave a textfield blank when i am validating it against 'notEmpty' the first time i hit the form submit button it works as expected and reloads the edit user page with the validation error displayed (URL: http://localhost/users/edit/3).  If i do nothing and try to submit the form again with the blank textfield i now get redirected to http://localhost/users/edit with an Invalid User message "Error: The requested address '/users/edit' was not found on this server."

<!-- app/Controller/UsersController.php -->

 public function edit($id = null) {

        $this->User->id = $id;

        if (!$this->User->exists()) {

            throw new NotFoundException(__('Invalid user'));

        }

        if ($this->request->is('post') || $this->request->is('put')) {

            if ($this->User->save($this->request->data)) {

                $this->Session->setFlash(__('The user has been saved'));

                $this->redirect(array('action' => 'index'));

            } else {

                $this->Session->setFlash(__('The user could not be saved. Please, try again.'));

            }

        } else {

            $this->request->data = $this->User->read(null, $id);

        }

    }

<!-- view/users/edit.ctp -->

<div class="users form">

<?php echo $this->Form->create('User', array('action' => 'edit'));?>

If you are using cake 2.x just use 

<?php echo $this->Form->create('User');?>

You are forcing the target for the form to /foo/edit instead of taking the default value (which is the current url).
