Thanks again, Dave -----Original Message----- From: brian [mailto:bally.z...@gmail.com] Sent: September-22-09 10:44 PM To: cake-php@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: Element question That's because the element relies on $viewVars. $award is outside the element's scope because you created it in your view. At least, I believe that's the case. Do this instead: echo $this->element('users/block_awards', array('award' => $award)); That should pass your var to the element.
