Hi, first of I think it's correct to talk about models since models are an abstraction for the tables.
Second i think you can use loadModel() to get access to a model that's not in the uses variabel, but you will have to instantiate the object your self, $model = new Model(); Ps. Can anyone plz comment me on this if it's wrong?
