just being curious: what´s the argument against defining the rows in the
model?
using id´s works fine with a few tables, but with hundreds of tables it´s
getting complicated: because "body" in "films" may be a large textarea
whereas "body" in "comments" may be a smaller one. ok, one could use
"film_body" for "films" and "comments_body" for "comments". then again, one
has to update the css-file when changing the model (which is not a good
thing to do in my opinion).
