Question

I know that CakePHP params easily extracts values from an URL like this one:

http://www.example.com/tester/retrieve_test/good/1/accepted/active

I need to extract values from an URL like this:

http://www.example.com/tester/retrieve_test?status=200&id=1yOhjvRQBgY

I only need the value from this id:

id=1yOhjvRQBgY

I know that in normal PHP $_GET will retrieve this easally, bhut I cant get it to insert the value into my DB, i used this code:

$html->input('Listing/vt_tour', array('value'=>$_GET["id"], 'type'=>'hidden'))

Any ideas guys?

Answer 1

Use this way

echo $this->params['url']['id'];
