@calvin: Thanks I am not that new to php, I know what an array and and array index is I can not du as you suppose as the data I need is not passed to the $booking array. $booking only contains the foreignkey in the field mealclassid the field melclassKennung is not available. I doublechecked this once by hardcoding it in and getting errors for non available array index once did the debug ($booking) to see what is contained.
This is why I asked for hot to do within cake. I might do myselfe some php sql syntax and get my data from the db directly but this is no good style i was told. My tryout using cakes find() also did not hit when I tired it inside the view code somhow I think it was the wrong place and might work if i do the find() inside the controller ** might be a guess for the cake book: add in the api where to call wich command ** cu michael On 15 Jun., 02:51, calvin <[email protected]> wrote: > When you baked your models did you set the displayField property when > cake bake asks you to?
