I am getting close.
My beforeFilter function in the app controller is being called on each
page (just like I want) but it seems to have trouble running something
in a model.
Anyone have any ideas on what I am doing wrong.
app_controller.php
<?php
class AppController extends Controller {
var $helpers = array('Html', 'Form', 'Javascript');
function beforeFilter()
{
$this->AppModel->carSign();
return true;
}
}
?>
app_model.php
<?php
class AppModel extends Model{
function carSign()
{
//make an entry into the database
echo 'wonkey';
}
}
?>
Here is the error
Notice: Undefined property: PagesController::$AppModel in /home/y/
share/htdocs/cake/app/app_controller.php on line 7 [/index.php] Fatal
error: Call to a member function carSign() on a non-object in /home/y/
share/htdocs/cake/app/app_controller.php on line 7 [/index.php]
