++ on that. If the client suddenly wants "posts" to be "blog" in the URL one need only change the route file. As for development time, I personally don't find that it takes me much longer at all. And it also helps to keep clear what a given link is all about, both for my own sanity and any future developer who might come across it. Which controller? Which view? Admin or not? etc. And the extra hit with having the helper create the link is minimal if you're using a cache. I had the same reservations when I first began with Cake but I now embrace Html::link(). -- Our newest site for the community: CakePHP Video Tutorials http://tv.cakephp.org Check out the new CakePHP Questions site http://ask.cakephp.org and help others with their CakePHP related questions.
