Re: Using pagination inside elements

2009-01-29 Thread dr. Hannibal Lecter
Well, maybe you didn't include the PaginatorHelper in your app. Other thing which seems odd to me is that your controller is "ItemsComments", but in your element you're calling $this- >requestAction('items/get_comments/'.$id). Is 'items/get_comments/' properly mapped to ItemsComments::index()? O

You're going in the right direction. Your function will only use the conditions for fields in your table. It doesn't really matter if your user specifies additional "conditions" because they will be ignored. I haven't tried it, but I assume you could always make a whitelist of allowed params and

Hi Sridhar, Of course you can use CakePHP to build a static site. Search for articles regarding "PagesController", a built-in controller which enables you to do just that - show static pages. Your header, side navigation etc are handled with view layouts. Hope that helps a bit. Welcome to cake wo

Depends. If you can do it in DB without performance loss, that's the best way. If not, view is good enough. I tend to do as much as possible in the database, because the damn thing is optimized to work with (large) sets of data. But in the end, if that's not an option for you, whatever gets the jo
