Well, given how easy the CakePHP 1.2 Auth component is to use, you don't have to worry about building your own authentication system. I'd say do the work first and then bolt on authentication afterwords. I know it's self-promotion, but I have several links at my blog (address below) that cover using the Auth component. -- Chris Hartjes Internet Loudmouth Motto for 2008: "Moving from herding elephants to handling snakes..." @TheKeyBoard: http://www.littlehart.net/atthekeyboard --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Cake PHP" group.
