在cakephp形式中使用不同的字段名称

Question

is it possible to change the name of a input field in cakephp? I tried with virtual fields, but it does shows the original column name from database.

can someone help me with this?

Answer 1

its pretty easy.. use it like this:

<?php echo $this->Form->input('theField', array( 'label'=>'Change the Text')); ?>

instead of this:

<?php echo $this->Form->input('theField'); ?>

i hope this helps! :)
