Many thanks for replying.

I can confirm that it works for me as well so thankyou very much!

Only problem is, while I can assign a string as a variable no problem,
I'm having trouble retrieving the data.

It is located in a "posts controller", and I am looking for the "name"
field from the category table as the dynamic title.

I have tried all the usual ways but nothing is getting outputted, (I
have included var $uses = array('Category', 'Post'); at the top so I
should be able to access the category table?)

I've tried:     $my_title = $this->Category->field('name');   &&
$my_title = $data['Category']['name']; and a few other variations with
no joy.

I'm a bit stumped, it is maybe something stupid that I am doing as I
am fairly new to cake.

Thanks in advance.
