How to configure Netbeans so it accesses your remote cake application and updates changes on run/on save

I always had the curiosity of trying to compile CakePHP to C++ code, but never had the time. This year I decided to give it a go...

To run i.e. maintenance jobs on a regular basis CakePHP provides the availability to write shells which should then be called by cron. Yet on recent Mac OS systems, cron is not the way to go anymore. Instead, there's "launchd". I want to show how to use launchd to run a custom shell on a regular time interval.

For most simple applications with some user frontend and maybe some admin backend the core ACL is way too much overhead in most cases. You would want something simple. Another advantage: It works with multiple roles per user - out of the box. If it doesn't even have to be databased you can use a simple ini file to manage all ACL stuff for you. I called it TinyAuth.

Getting a good test environment running on your machine can be a chore when you have to worry about OS upgrades that break paths and utilities.

This article shows how to implement a generic and easy to use AJAX validator, which uses the regular model validation rules and works on-the-fly. It doesn't require even to touch a model. This article assumes that you are using jQuery. You don't have to set validation rules for the validated fields, but if you have not, the validation will always succeed. For this purpose, we'll make use of - an additional helper AjaxValidator - an additional helper ExtendedForm - an additional component AjaxValidator - one entry in the routing table - one additional js-file - app_controller - if you wish, configuration using Configure() - if you wish, css-files Note: I have encountered side-effects in conjunction with the Analogue-Plugin, therefore I don't map ExtendedForm to Form. Thus, you have to switch to ExtendedForm as a Helper - there's no mapping layer.

Some times users need to search trough our data and then navigate to result pages, but when they click on next page the result lost. How can we fix it? I want to show how easily we can paginate through our search result without losing our searched data.

I was looking around eveywhere trying to find a some info on PHPMailer and cake the problem I was having was that when PHPMailer threw an exception it stop the header and displayed the error so my app wouldn't continue.

In 2008, I wrote an [url="http://bakery.cakephp.org/articles/abalonepaul/2008/07/07/using_the_ajax_helper_for_inplaceeditor_and_inplacecollectioneditor_fields"]article on using the Scriptaculous InPlaceEditor and InPlaceCollectionEditor[/url]. I recently updated that project and converted the editors to jQuery. This is a brief tutorial on using the [url=http://code.google.com/p/jquery-in-place-editor/]jQuery In Place Editor[/url]. This is much easier than using Prototype and Scriptaculous.
