You can call a Behavior's methods as if they belonged to the model. I've never used this MeioUpload so I can't say what you should do, but I can recommend Nick Baker's FileUpload plugin. It does what you want. http://www.webtechnick.com/blogs/view/221/CakePHP_File_Upload_Plugin -- Our newest site for the community: CakePHP Video Tutorials http://tv.cakephp.org Check out the new CakePHP Questions site http://ask.cakephp.org and help others with their CakePHP related questions.
