Hi all,
I’m new to Yii. Based on the examples in the book I’m trying to build a little app. I have successfully managed to connect to my table tbl_user and I can log in and log out.
Now I’m trying to update user information. I built a method actionUpdate in the controller User and a view file that loads the attached form. When clicking the submit button the page user/update gets reloaded. Values are not saved and the redirection to user/welcome does not occur. I put a “echo $model->getErrors();” right after “$this->redirect(array(‘user/welcome’));” and it returns an empty array.
It would be awesome and much appreciated if someone could help me as I’m a complete beginner. Thanks…
Here is the code:
Controller:
<?php
class UserController extends Controller
