thanks a lot, John
If the tables have user.author_id and user.publisher_id, yeah.
ok, but one of these fields will always be empty/unused, since a webuser is either author or publisher. that's why i doubted it's the perfect design...
It mostly has to do with the way the keying of the tables are, and how you most often want the data.
i need the user model only once to authenticate a web user. after authentication every action is checked against session data. the personal data in author and publisher resp. are used by far more often. jyrgen --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Cake PHP" group.
