[RESOLVED] read session in cakephp

Hi,

I am making a login script using cakephp.The check_login function from user model returns all data of the user if login succeed.

Inside the user controller if I just want to display

[code=php]echo $this -> Session -> read(“User.type”);[/code]

then nothing is displayed where as if I do

[code=php]$this->Session->write(‘type’, $user[‘User’][‘type’]);
echo $this->Session->read(“type”);[/code]

then it displays the data.

Code:

[code=php]if( ($user = $this->User->check_login($this->data)) )
{

$this->Session->write(‘type’, $user[‘User’][‘type’]);
echo $this->Session->read(“type”);

// save the user information to the session
$this->Session->write(‘User’, $user);
echo $this -> Session -> read(“User.type”); //display nothing
} [/code]

I have to know what I am doing wrong.

Please suggest..

Thanks,
Raj
