Re: form password default value

thats simple: if you post the form it will keep all the values. so the password is (probably hashed in your controller and) returned back to the view.

an empty string would also result in a long hash.

either way, the password fields should always be empty as default - otherwise you could make them visible input fields right away.

Ok friends i have solved the problem.Can I ask you why this problem arises?

to euromark:I should change the field into the table too because i have users.password column.What I am doing is only an example to see how cakephp works.Thank you for the advice.

and if possible use an alias for your form field "password" like "pwd" as well as some kind of "pwd_repeat" field to confirm the password (since you cant see it very often it is mistyped rendering the registration invalid then by accident):
