Use the standard way of setting a variable in a PHP Class, if you want to say, set a variable in one method of a class and retrieve it in another.
Class SomethingController extends AppController{ function a(){ $this->myVar = "whee"; $this->b(); } function b(){ echo $this->myVar; } } as nate said, $this->set is used for transferring data from the Controller side of things to the View. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Cake PHP" group.
