Hi Grant,
I should have stated the reason. I was trying to set up an automated
way to populate my modified_by field with the logged-in user name.
Thus:
$model->data[$model->name]['modifiedby'] =
$_SESSION['member'];
but using cake, rather than PHP. It occurred to me that there might
be all sorts of data I might wish to pass to the behavior. It seems
rather limited in being able to receive variables from the
controller. Maybe I've misunderstood this, but if the Behavior
cannot receive and manipulate data very easily then there doesn't seem
much point in having the Behaviors facility.
