I've also used: $this->set('cities', $this->{$this->modelNames[0]}->query('SELECT id, title FROM cities as City'));
inside the beforeFilter of app_controller.php to do that. The only time you'll run into trouble that way is if no models are defined for a particular controller, so you might check for that. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Cake PHP" group.
