What you need to do is write an index action for your users_controller like you would if you were NOT using ajax or reusing that action at all. Once you have that done, modify that function to check isset( $this- >params['requested'] ) to see if the view action if being called via the requestActio

I have had good success by using a model function to generate a custom query from the url. Search for other posts on nested categories for some solutions. I generally resolve the id of the article/category - whatever is nested - using a recursive function in the model and then pass that along to a

You can call a script the same way, just use $( "#quote p" ).load( "/ contoller/action" ); Make sure your controller handles ajax requests. If you don't know what that means look up requestAction or parseExtensions in the groups. On Jul 2, 10:12 pm, Jim Newfer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I hav

gwoo that is the model I used. Nothing I have found works to lookup the id of a category when the category tree is passed via the url as params. The function crazylegs wrote is logically sound but why would I execute N queries to get to the id only to use it to do lookups against other tables?

Not sure if it helps you at all but I once needed to know the ID of the current category in a tree structure where the 'token' of the category was the url param and not the id. IE. http://server.com/categories/art/painting/van_gogh and I needed to resolve the id of the category 'van_gogh' in ord

I use even shorter keys id and pid since I like short names. I was writing out long names to make them obvious in the source as to what they are. Use whatever names you want. Just make sure to use cake conventions or make sure you set the table and all of the keynames in the model --~--~---
