Re: How to define a variable in Cakephp

I'm pleased it works, but I'm confused why you need this line:

public $variableValue = 'Open';

Why not just do this:

$this->set('variableValue', 'Open');

Thank you, now it works. What i did was in my controller i put this line

public $variableValue = 'Open';

Then in my add function

 $this->set('variableValue', $this->variableValue);

And lastly in my add view

echo $this->Form->input('status_type', array('type' => 'hidden', 'value'=>$variableValue));

Hope this will help out someone with the same challenge

Correction (sorry):

Then in your view you can refer to $myVariableName.

To pass a variable through to a view, simply do this in your controller function:

$this->set('myVariableName', $variableValue);

Then in your view you can refer to $variableValue.

    var $view = 'Open';

    public function index() {
    $this->ItQuery->recursive = 0;
    $this->set('view', $this->view);
       
    }

    //Other Code

    }

and here is where im trying to pass the variable as a hidden field

    <?php echo $this->Form->create('ItQuery'); ?>
    <?php echo __('Add It Query'); ?></legend>
    <?php
    echo $this->Form->input('status_type', array('type' => 'hidden', 'value'=>$view));
    ?>
    <?php echo $this->Form->end(__('Submit')); ?>
