This may be more of a regex question, but I can't seem to get some
validation working inside Cake that seems to work fine outside of
Cake.
A field needs to either be (1) a valid number, or (2) nothing. So, in
effect, "You don't have to enter this, but if you do, it better be a
number."

How feasible is it to use the CakePHP ACL system in a non-CakePHP
site?
I'm hoping to just use the ACL-related objects and database tables
independent of the rest of the CakePHP system.
Nothing against CakePHP -- there's a very specific reason why I have
to do it this way.

That's strikes me as not workable on the surface, since I'm not
passing the 'Zone' element of the data array to the save() method. So

Chris:
Thanks. What I found was that I needed to pass the entire $this->data
structure, rather than just the "User" element.
So, not this --
$this->User->save($this->data['User'])
-- but this --
$this->User->save($this->data)
This seems to have w
I'm using the boilerplate code from the manual for some basic CRUD
operations, and it's led to a question about how data gets into the
template.
In the "index" method of a controller, you see this:
$this->set('Users', $this->User->findAll());
So, we're explicitly assigning the results of fin

My HABTM works fine if there's at least one relationship. In these
cases, Cake deletes everything from the interstitial table and inserts
the specified relationships.
However, if there are NO relationships, Cake never does
If I want to create an object, set some properties, and save it, can I
do this in my controller:

This object has nothing to do with my controller. This just needs to

Say I need to make some functionality globally available to all my
controllers.
What's the functional difference between (1) putting the method on the
app_controller, or (2) creating a component and importing it where
needed?
I can think of two differences, but are there are things I'm not

My firm is new to CakePHP, and we're struggling with a piece of "Cake

When you do a Find or a FindAll, why do you get back a big, nested
array? When I do Widget->FindAll() why do I not get back an array of
Widget objects? Isn't that what a model is for?

A couple days ago, I lamented that Find* didn't return an array of
model objects. I posted about it here, and I was told that one of the
reasons for this was that it would be "too tempting" to start
inserting business logic in the views if you had objects available
there.

If I can't get clean access to model objects in my controllers, how am

Good enough. I'll concede this one, then.
Thanks, everyone, for your input.
