CakePHP has a set of rules, and one of those rules is "thou shalt not call models from your views". Yes, that sucks when you want to do it. I'm sure Craig is smart enough to figure it out using CakePHP's rules. I've often found that when you can't do something a certain way in any given application framework, chances are you are probably taking the wrong approach.
