Re: Filtering Data
sam D, really you want to avoid the custom sql (using -query) as much as possible Why? That method seems to work fine. I use query(). Please elaborate.

Re: Re: Filtering Data
Oh I use it too, I just try to avoid it because I don't want to create too many dependancies to a particular DB engine, it is far too easy for me to put mysql specific syntax in there then I loose the portability that a database abstraction layer buys me. Now if I was very instinctive about using pure 'sql' I wouldn't worry too much about it...

Re: Filtering Data
Thanks, I'll try that as soon as I get a chance. Can you please tell me how (or if it is possible) to have multiple conditions in the array? Similar to: WHERE category_id = 1 AND author = 'me'. Also at what point of complexity or when is it just better to use SQL in your model? --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Cake PHP group.

Re: Filtering Data
what about the HABTM associations., is there an easy method to filter information based on values in the join table? e.g. User and Group models using groups_users function index() { $conditions = array('Group.id' = 2); $this-data = $this-User-findAll($conditions); } On 19/08/06, Samuel DeVore [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: array('Post.category_id'=$id,'Post.author'='me') you can also have , and stuff like that just put it like 'Post.category_id'=' ' + $id for a strange one. really you want to avoid the custom sql (using -query) as much as possible IMHO read the manual section on model for more information http://manual.cakephp.org/chapter/models your conditions can be an array or a string (I tend to prefer the array notation) sam D On 8/18/06, c_doug [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Thanks, I'll try that as soon as I get a chance.
