G'day
I feel that I am somewhat standing in front of a forest shooting at
it, hoping to hit a tree looking for what would cause the following. I
am hoping I've just missed something in my usage of CakePHP here and
someone can refer me to the right doc.
I have a controller called "model_alternates_controller.php" which
contains the following lines (amoung others):
$this->ModelAlternate->recursive = 0;
$this->set('modelAlternates', $this->ModelAlternate-
>findAll());
$this->set('tirelist', $this->ModelAlternate-
>generateList( ));
I have two views defined in the following structure:
app/views/model_alternates/index.thtml
app/views/models/index.thtml
In app/views/model_alternates/index.thtml, I have the following:
<div>
<?php
echo $html->selectTag('ModelAlternate/
alt_model_id', $tirelist, null, array('Model_Number' =>
'model_alternates'));
?>
</div>
This works fine in the models_alternates view but putting the same
lines in the "models/index.thtml" just gives me "Notice: Undefined
variable: tirelist in </cakehome/app/views/models/index.thtml on line
16". It uses the same controller, maybe I am fighting the naming
conventions between models/controllers and views?
I was originally trying to set up display that when a model code was
selected, the other box of "alternate choices" would change according
to the contents of that table. But the model_alternates table has an
autoincrement key as the primary. I was trying what I had read about
for setting that scenario up and it was not working so I set this up
as a "smaller" test to make sure I hadn't misunderstood the basics of
the selects in CakePHP. I figure I missed reading something but have
been reading alot today, mostly wrong turns but very educational ones.
Can anyone please tell me which grove of trees to aim for?
Thanks.......
