Funnily enough I'm just working on some view templates at this very minute,
which is why I have the info to hand!
I am using this at one point:
<?php
echo "<?php echo
isset(\${$singularVar}['{$modelClass}']['{$displayField}'])
? \${$singularVar}['{$modelClass}']['{$displayField}']
: '{$singularHumanName}'; ?>";
?>
...which is not bullet proof but is doing what I need it to do.
I have placed some debug statements in order to discover about the various
variables in there. I'm sure there's more to learn.
/cake/console/libs/tasks/ is where the variables are set. Have a look in
view.php, for example.
