Well, you're not too far off in thinking that... :) FYI, I just finished rewriting the whole section: http://book.cakephp.org/view/171/access-control-lists (complete with a more concrete reference to LoTR) I'm sure it needs a little more love, but hopefully it's better than it used to be. Feel free to dive in and fix my typos. > I guess it would be very helpful > if you're familiar with that book/movie/video game/whatever, but > consider it for those who are not.

I usually don't like to supply a lot of source. The point of the manual is to teach people how to understand and use the system, not copy and paste. It's a fine line to walk, but I think it's an important decision. Next on the list, the ACL console application, ACL + Auth, and the AclBehavior..... any takers? :) -- John --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "CakePHP" group.
