the best way i found to use generateFieldnames was to do something like
this:
$fieldnames = $this->requestAction("Posts/generateFieldNames");

where, Posts would be the controller for the Post model. That way I can
choose which model i want (by using the model's controller ). The only
thing I am not sure is how CakePHP handles generateFieldNames if the
controller "uses" more than one table.

hope that helps,
dave
