Thanks for the reply. Your assistance is most appreciated.
Yes, I have tried this, and no it doesn't work within the model.
Presently, in the model, I have tried various iterations of:
function getMemberID() {
return $this->id;
// or
return $this->Model->id;
// or
return $this->Modelname->id;
// or
return $this->getID();
// or
return $this->Modelname->getID();
// or
return $this->getLastInsertID();
}
AND
var $getMemberID = $this->id;
// or
var $getMemberID = $this->Model->id;
// or
var $getMemberID = Modelname->id;
// or
var $getMemberID = $this->Model->getID();
// or
var $getMemberID = $this->Modelname->getID();
// anon...
All to no avail. The only remotely successful variation:
function getMemberID() {
return $this->id;
}
has returned null. The others, of course, are only going to produce
errors.
I am able to retrieve other fields from the same Model. Just not the
ID.
In my controller, I have:
$this->set ( 'memberid', $this->Member->getMemberID() );
to prepare the Model data for the view.
I'm flummoxed. This should be working flawlessly, and I get nothing
but null on a field I know has the data I'm looking for.
