CakePHP表单帮助程序问题，带有编辑日期

Question

I'm quite newbie in CakePHP, I've tried to create a form with form helper on a date field

echo $this->Form->input('Item.date');

yes, works fine (I'm using CakePHP v1.3.3) for input/add new record but when I try using it on edit page it does nothing. here's the code

echo $this->Form->input('Item.date', array("value"=>$rs['Item']['date']));

it still display listbox without retrieving the value from desired table. Any help appreciated, sorry for my english..

Answer 1

you shouldnt use inline params for default values. pass them down from the controller:

see "default-values"

Answer 2

我使用选定的选项找到了答案：

echo $this->Form->input('Item.date', array('selected'=>$rs['Item']['date']));
