G'day I feel that I am somewhat standing in front of a forest shooting at it, hoping to hit a tree looking for what would cause the following. I am hoping I've just missed something in my usage of CakePHP here and someone can refer me to the right doc.
I have a controller called "model_alternates_controller.php" which contains the following lines (amoung others): $this->ModelAlternate->recursive = 0; $this->set('modelAlternates', $this->ModelAlternate- >findAll()); $this->set('tirelist', $this->ModelAlternate- >generateList( )); I have two views defined in the following structure: app/views/model_alternates/index.thtml app/views/models/index.thtml In app/views/model_alternates/index.thtml, I have the following: <div> <?php echo $html->selectTag('ModelAlternate/ alt_model_id', $tirelist, null, array('Model_Number' => 'model_alternates')); ?> </div> This works fine in the models_alternates view but putting the same lines in the "models/index.thtml" just gives me "Notice: Undefined variable: tirelist in </cakehome/app/views/models/index.thtml on line 16". It uses the same controller, maybe I am fighting the naming conventions between models/controllers and views? I was originally trying to set up display that when a model code was selected, the other box of "alternate choices" would change according to the contents of that table. But the model_alternates table has an autoincrement key as the primary. I was trying what I had read about for setting that scenario up and it was not working so I set this up as a "smaller" test to make sure I hadn't misunderstood the basics of the selects in CakePHP. I figure I missed reading something but have been reading alot today, mostly wrong turns but very educational ones. Can anyone please tell me which grove of trees to aim for?
