I have zero experience with views...but I don't see what would stop anyone from creating a model that manipulates views. Maybe you don't get to use all the fancy helper methods, but I suspect you probably need to have a certain level of knowledge of SQL and databases in order to get the most out of views. Which, by extension, means you should be okay doing your own hand-written queries. I believe that the point of the helper functions is to keep things database-agnostic, and building in exceptions for a specific database should be kept to a minimum. Just my opinion. -- 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.
