That's interesting about Dojo. What other transport methods does it support? You have to keep in mind though, that Cake is oriented towards browser-based applications, which automatically constrains your thinking in many respects, one of which is the use of XHR as the transport mechanism of choice. > And conventions are hard to guess.

Yes, sometimes they are not immediately obvious. If you find something that you think should be documented, but you can't find it in the manual, by all means, open a ticket (trac.cakephp.org). We already have an impressive list of doc tickets going ;-) --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Cake PHP" group.
