Hi,
OK you need to be a bit more specific as I am new to this.
Say I have 2 tables table1 and table2 and each has its own model.
table1 has a 1 to many relationship with table2.
table1 has a id
table2 has the same id as a foreign key.
*In my table1 model*
public $belongsTo = array('Table2');
*In my table2 model*
public $hasMany = array('Table1');
*The query*
$everything = $this->Table1->find('all', array('contain' =>
array('Table2')));
*// Assuming recursive is -1 in your AppModel* ??????????????? where is
this please
*Then I can access the data from a view*
foreach($everything as $data) {
echo $user['Table1']['name'];
echo $user['Table2'']['username'];
}
Is this correct?
