If you are using recursion and association you simply count the related array to get the records. count($data['Comment']). I would advise against making a requestaction call to retrieve it or putting hack code in the view.
Another more elegant solution is to utilize the afterFind. Just remember that any "virtual" fields you add only work on find calls. So you would need to use findById() instead of read(null, $id). or even the setid, read. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Cake PHP" group.
