Question

I am new to Yii framework and I am having trouble with retrieving data from my form. In my controller I wrote:

$request = Yii::app()->request;
$form = $request->getPost('createProjectForm');
var_dump($form);

Whenever I submit, the form is null. However, if I var_dump($_POST), I still get the values. Can anyone tell me what is wrong? Thank you very much and sorry for my bad English.

Answer 1

this is the getPost function and it returns the $_POST array

public function getPost($name,$defaultValue=null)
{
   return isset($_POST[$name]) ? $_POST[$name] : $defaultValue;
}

could you tell what is the result of this code in your action

var_dump(isset($_POST['CreateProjectForm']));
