Comment on Working with passwords in CakePHP by Mark

Maybe it has to do with the validation rules?
I only use the 2.x version nowadays. But it must be sth related to this.

I'm trying to use the behavior with a registration form and have a problem. If the entered pwd is shorter than the minimum length I get the following:

Notice (8): Undefined offset: 2 in [C:\wamp\www\cake_1_3\cake\libs\view\helpers\form.php, line 487

Things work as expected for valid password lengths, and when the pwd_repeat doesn't match.

I'm using cakephp 1.3.

Any ideas what would cause this?

yes, that should definitely be possible – both ways you describe. I will look into that.

I'm a beginner at the whole thing, so sorry if the question is obvious.
Is there a way to set the map's setting without having a config file for $config['Google']? I want to set the map's zoom level in the view. I tried

echo $this->GoogleMapV3->map(array('div'=>array('height'=>'400', 'width'=>'600'), 'map'=>array('zoom'=>3)));

or Configure::write('Google.zoom', 3); just before invoking map but that value seems to be overwritten by _defaultOptions.
Thanks for the helper!

Ah, good to know – thanks for the info!

I believe Rails recently changed their default behavior to html-escape in view. It used to be you had to call an h() function, but in Rails 3 (and I think newer Rails 2.x) it's automatically escaped unless you call raw().

That might be nice for CakePHP as well. Seems a little safer. So, it would be great if was escaped and if I wanted the raw data output.

Using an array in map() worked for me. Thank you.

did you try to set them via "map" key?
'map'=>array('lat'=>…, 'lng'=>…)
?
you will need to show some code

Mark,
I am having trouble getting my $options array to work. I can get a marker at the lat and lng I specify, but the map won't center over these coordinates, and it won't zoom to that level (it will work if I set them in the php file as a default so I know there is not a problem with my coordinates or zoom level). It's like the options I set don't override the default values in the original helper file. Any advice?

Actually .. Something like the book tutorial – http://book.cakephp.org/2.0/en/tutorials-and-examples/simple-acl-controlled-application/simple-acl-controlled-application.html, will be really good

Hey Mark,

Thanks for the good work.

I am saying its good, because it looks like that & you won't claim it being the fastest & easiest..

I am a newbie in Cake, I have setup cake2.0 & I tried to follow your instructions but like "Matt" said, you can still make the tutorial more clear & to the point & step by step. I got confused at points like -

"If you don’t want this, use Configure to store your keys like so:"

I took some time to figure out that I need to do this in bootstrap file using Configure::write.. I am still not sure if this is the right way..

Basically, steps starting from we downloading cake & till the point where we are ready with a basic setup will be something that will help this a lot

Thanks & Hoping you help me out
