In my expirience i got this solution to work and quickly understandable
You have two models for data you wish collect. Let's say Person
and Vehicle
.
Step 1 : Set up controller for entering form
In your controller create model objects:
public function actionCreate() {
$Person = new Person;
$Vehicle = new Vehicle;
//.. see step nr.3
$this->render('create',array(
'Person'=>$Person,
'Vehicle'=>$Vehicle)
);
}
Step 2 : Write your view file
//..define form
echo CHtml::activeTextField($Person,'name');
echo CHtml::activeTextField($Person,'address');
// other fields..
echo CHtml::activeTextField($Vehicle,'type');
echo CHtml::activeTextField($Vehicle,'number');
//..enter other fields and end form
put some labels and design in your view ;)
Step 3 : Write controller on $_POST
action
and now go back to your controller and write funcionality for POST action
if (isset($_POST['Person']) && isset($_POST['Vehicle'])) {
$Person = $_POST['Person']; //dont forget to sanitize values
$Vehicle = $_POST['Vehicle']; //dont forget to sanitize values
/*
Do $Person->save() and $Vehicle->save() separately
OR
use Transaction module to save both (or save none on error)

*/
}
else {
Yii::app()->user->setFlash('error','You must enter both data for Person and Vehicle');
// or just skip `else` block and put some form error box in the view file
}
