CakePHP - 保存日期字段时出错

Question

I have trouble saving my date field into database using CakePHP.

Table column name

[User].[dob]

View

<?php echo $this->Form->input('dob', array('type'=> 'date', 'label' => FALSE, 'dateFormat' => 'DMY', 'minYear' => date('Y') - 111, 'maxYear' => date('Y'))); ?>

I get the following error when I submit the form -

2011-12-29 00:33:57 Debug: Notice (8): Array to string conversion in [C:\\xampp\\htdocs\\dearmemoir\\cake\\libs\\router.php, line 1573]

This field is part of the Auth User Model. Any ideas what might be going wrong?

Answer 1

This line of code did the magic for me -

$this->data['User']['dob'] = date('Y-m-d', strtotime($this->data['User']['dob']));

I am able to save data now!

Answer 2

I suspect that you are looking in the wrong place. The error message is coming from the CakePHP routing (router.php) - ie possibly the redirect URL that you are using.

The example code you give looks correct, it almost exactly matches an example from the Cake cookbook :

echo $this->Form->input('birth_dt', array( 'label' => 'Date of birth', 'dateFormat' => 'DMY', 'minYear' => date('Y') - 70, 'maxYear' => date('Y') - 18 ));

You can add in a check for any validation errors .
