How can i create an add function that doesn't show up the confirmation text via flash, but onto the same view?

~apilookup setflash

[Peter Pitt]

No, i mean... like instead of loading a new page, it just shows a message on the view
In case that they want to add some more

[montanarry]

Need to explain it more
Using ajax?

[Peter Pitt]

Hmm... no
For example, on the tutorial
When you add a post, it sends you to a new page (via flash)
I would like to load the add view and show a confirmation message instead of the other page

And the models are in svn also

[Peter Pitt]

No need to keep the data, as the entry was added

Peter Pitt, what about a JS alert?

[montanarry]

Peter Pitt, $this->redirect('/same/page');

[Peter Pitt]

I want to keep the use of javascript at the minimun

[montanarry]

Simple
And the setFlash method

[Peter Pitt]

Call me stupid, but i couldn't figure out the setFlash

[montanarry]

Peter Pitt, did you look at the API?

[Peter Pitt]

Yep

[montanarry]

$this->Session->setFlash('Message to show when page is displayed again');
Did you create your own layout?

[Peter Pitt]

Before the redirect, i suppose
Nope

[montanarry]

Yes Peter Pitt
If you create your own layout
You must have this line
Https://trac.cakephp.org/browser/trunk/cake/1.x.x.x/cake/libs/view/templates/layouts/default.thtml#L57
In it or the message to render
...for the...

[Peter Pitt]

Ok... i'm getting a warning when trying to do validation
Warning: preg_match() [function.preg-match]: Delimiter must not be alphanumeric or backslash in C:\Program Files\xampp\htdocs\cake\cake\libs\model\model_php5.php on line 1458
Fixed, sorry

[montanarry]

User error

[Peter Pitt]

Yep
What's $_crumbs on htmlHelper?
It says that it is a public attribute and an array, but no more info on that
