Re: null value from date field.

'''
Cake can also check for null fields. In this example, the query will
return records where the post title is not null:

array ("not" => array (
"Post.title" => null
)
)

Re: parseExtension question allows just a subset of extensions??

Figured out by myself.. You just have to add
$this->RequestHandler->setCont ent('rtf', 'application/rtf');
in app_controller.php beforeFilter()

Hi Martin,

Many thanks for the fast reply, I did read this post earlier and have
since read up on star-schema and your CakePHP implementation. I am not
hugely experienced with web development but have been doing it full
time since I finished Uni in July and was never taught anything about
denormalising databases for analytical processing, we always focused

parseExtension question allows just a subset of extensions??

2009-11-11T10:45:08Z

Hi
I'm banging my head against the wall trying to figure out why CakePHP
does not parse the .rtf extension, after that I added the extension in
Router::parseExtensions('json' , 'xml', 'rtf', 'pdf'), /app/views/
layouts/rtf/default.ctp and /app/views/controllername/rtf/
action_name.ctp

Please let me know if you know how CakePHP reacts to unknown

Re: Problem related to Pagination and Binding

2009-11-11T10:36:36Z

Hi Guys,

I have found out where the problem is. The pagination function makes 2
calls.

1. First one for Page Count
2. Second one for Actual Records.

My Page Count query is working fine. But 2nd Query is not working
fine. This is because after the first call model relationships are
reset. As mentioned in the manual, passing the second argument as

2009-11-11T10:11:54Z

Thanks for all the help.

The easisest way I found it was just to run the following statement in
the form

if ($this->['Profile']['sex'] == 'Female') {
echo $form->input('hips');

In relation to this. I am also interested in general approaches into
"modularity".

Having user account management is one thing, profiles another, shouts
a third, messaging is one and so on.

Hey,

I would use something like this:

But as other have suggested, for easing your users experience, be
minimal with sounds if you can.
They are great for band sites.. and for audible notifications. Thats
about it ;-)

Re: $uses not working in Shell

2009-11-11T09:19:43Z

Yes, that way it works, but according to the cookbook it should also
work using the $uses.

Example from the book:
<?php
class SoundTask extends Shell {
var $uses = array('Model'); // same as controller var $uses
function execute() {}
}
?>

2009-11-11T04:51:37Z

I'm relatively new to cakePHP and am trying to set up a simple thesis
review system in order to get my head around how it works. So keep in
mind I've probably missed something very basic.

For now, I'm just trying to display some information about a Thesis,
including the author and category, which are separate models. Because

Re: Play Audio in PHP

AFAIK - PHP doesn't actually play any media content itself. What it
can do is output the html that will inturn play media. The actual
loading and playing of the song files can be done by plugins (flash,
java applet, quicktime etc...) or even natively in the broswer with
HTML. Its probably beyond the scope of this google group so your next

Hi Guys,

I have made some breakthrough using Containable in this.

$this->paginate['Sales'] = array('contain' => 'Withdrawn',
'conditions' => array('Sales.property_id = Withdrawn.property_id') );

It works fine upto here but in the following statement again it
doesn't recognizes Withdrawn.property_id

Where should this code go?

2009-11-11T08:44:05Z

I want to write some code that can be passed some variables, then
reads data from a table (menus) and produces some html (one or more
ULs) to display as a dynamic and context sensitive navigation bar. The
ULs will most probably be displayed in an element as they will appear
on every view.

I'm not sure if this should be a plugin, a component or a helper. Some
