As Luke already pointed out, to prepare any kind of variable / data for your views, you need to use the Controller::set() method.
Declaring a variable is not enough because it is only a local var then, isn't it? Besides, if you view could see every single variable from your controller, that wouldn't be very clean, right? :) Also, since this is a very basic question, you might want to take a look at the blog tutorial in the cookbook.
