Notice (8): Undefined variable: form [[…], line 64]

Fatal error: Call to a member function create() on a non-object in […] on line 64

Greetings!

Was learning about the form helper in CakePHP and I can’t figure out why it won’t work out. I even included the helper in the controller
var $helpers = array('Html', 'Form'); and it’s not working. Can anybody see anything I might have missed? I’m really new to CakePHP and usually I have friends I can leach off of when it comes to stuff in PHP, but not with this particular framework…

All help is appreciated 🙂

Line 64 is nothing more than <?php echo $form->create(); ?> by the way.

Answer 1

You are running a 2.0 development version of CakePHP where the $helper->method(); syntax is no longer supported. Change your syntax to $this->Form->create(); or install a stable 1.3 release version of CakePHP.
