(I think I'm getting as old and cranky as Sam DeVore) Step #1: make sure you have your app in SQL debugging mode by making sure DEBUG is set to 2 in your core.php config file. Step #2: Look at the SQL output it generates and make sure the queries are actually pulling the information you are expecting Step #3: add a 'debug($data);' statment somewhere in your controller so you can actually see how the data array is structured. I know it looks like I'm picking on Mr. Dustin here, but this is *basic* debugging technique. You can't even begin to build anything bigger than "Hello world" if you don't learn how to debug your code effectively. I don't mind helping people out, but it gets harder and harder to supress my inner cranky developer when basic debugging rules aren't being followed. Perhaps there should be a chapter in the manual (or someplace else) on how to effectively debug CakePHP applications. I have donned my flame-proof suit and await your responses. ;) -- Chris Hartjes "The greatest inefficiencies come from solving problems you will never have." -- Rasmus Lerdorf @TheBallpark - http://www.littlehart.net/attheballpark @TheKeyboard - http://www.littlehart.net/atthekeyboard --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Cake PHP" group.
