Hi Matt,
I saw your post from a few days ago. I copied my code from the
tutorial, but it did not work at all. I can only get XML::build() to
work with a one element array. Creating an array such as
array("Employees"=>$this->Employee->find('all')) was also giving me an
error, so I've devised the following workaround for now.
EmployeesController:
function index(){
$this->set('employees', $this->paginate('Employee'));
$this->set('name', $this->name);
}
/app/View/Employees/xml/index.ctp:
<?php
echo "<$name>";
foreach($employees as $e){
$xml = Xml::build($e);
$children = $xml->children();
$key = key($e);
echo "<$key>";
foreach($children as $ckey=>$cvalue){
echo "<$ckey>$cvalue</$ckey>";
}
echo "</$key>";
}
echo "</$name>";
?>
If anyone knows of a better workout around or how to get things
working with the CakePHP Xml Utility, I would be very interested.
