I guess I spoke too soon! I tried it and just realized its still not working as I thought. Specifically my issue is that how can CakePHP know that the user_hash part in my url of http://myapp.com/my_controller/my_rss/user_hash is set without declaring a var like http://myapp.com/my_controller/my_rss?user_hash=12048489009112
I tried using this in the controller but the explode keeps giving me an error and I am not sure why. I am so close i can taste it too! class Thank extends AppModel { var $name = 'Thank'; var $thispage = explode('/',$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']); var $feed = array( 'conditions' => array('Thank.rss_hash' => '$thispage[2]'), 'titleField' => 'Thank.title', 'descField' => 'Thank.title', 'link' => '/thanks', 'orderby' => array('Thank.created' => 'DESC'), 'limit' => 10 ); } On Mar 8, 12:09 am, graphicdefine <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Thanks so much Johan - this makes a lot of sense now.
