if you have setup an association between Posts and Comments, this info
should already be there, try pr ($this->Post->findAll); in your
controller to see what's there, because you should be able to jsut
count() the comments, eg:
// in posts_controller
function index ()
{
$this->Post->recursive = 1;
$posts = $this->Post->findAll ();
$this->set ('data', $posts);
}
// views/posts/index.thtml
<?php foreach ($data as $post): ?>
<h3><?php echo $post['Post']['title']; ?></h3>
<p><?php echo $post['Post']['body'] ?></p>
<p><?php echo count($post['Comment']); ?> comments</p>
<?php endforeach; ?>
