how to display the comments on the same page? cakephp - php

Question

I am starting to learn PHP framework, particulary cakephp. I know how to insert into database, but I am curious about displaying the entries on the same page. I don't want to reload or redirect the page just to display the results.
I have only three four fields in the database. id, name, email, and the date. I have used the same validation in the model page.
Controllers:
<?php
function index(){
if($this->request->is('Post')){
$this->Save->save(data);
}
//display the entries from the database
$this->set('saves', $this->Save->find('all'));
}
?>
Index.ctp:
<?php
echo $this->Form->create('Save');
echo $this->Form->input('name', array('class'=>'name', 'required' => true));
echo $this->Form->input('email', array('class'=>'email', 'required' => true));
echo $this->Form->input('message', array( 'required' => true));
echo $this->Form->submit('submit', array('formnovalidate' => true));
//i want to display the entries here
foreach($saves as $row){
echo $row['Save']['name'];
echo $row['Save']['comment'];
}
?>
The problem is that , it affects the textarea. It reduces the size to half. Need help. thanks a lot. I am new to cakephp and I have been googling about it, but have not find the any results. Thanks

From what I understand it seems that your problem is more CSS issue than CakePHP issue. I don't think printing the data will cut the field into half.
Try put after echo $this->Form->submit('submit', array('formnovalidate' => true)); because the submit method does not include afterwards.
You can this $this->Form->end if you don't want to add the form closing tag manually.
