Form tag is stripped off in Cake Php view file.
In 'login.ctp' (Layout view)
<div id="test">
<?php echo $this->Form->create(); ?>
Test form Elements
<?php echo $this->Form->end(); ?>
</div>
When checked in firebug console only creating below tags
<div id="test">
<div style="display:none;"><input type="hidden" value="POST" name="_method"></div>
Test form Elements
</div>
// "<div style="display:none;"><input type="hidden" value="POST" name="_method"></div>". This div tag is automatically created.
I also created a 'inner.ctp' on elements in views and tried to call from layout view(login.ctp) as echo $this->element('inner') , but results in same problem
Can any one help?
I'm almost certain that you have another form on your page, probably in your layout, that you're not closing with...
echo $this->Form->end();
If this is not the case, I suggest getting the latest stable version of Cake 1.3 and overwriting your current one.
