Wow - Jeremy you are the man with many awesome suggestions.
This is my first BIG project using cake (which is amazing) so I am
trying to do it all. I thought I would get the app working and then
go back and add all the goodies. It seems every time I look through
the book (1 million times a day) I find yet another method I will need
to add. Ugh:)
Right now I am focusing on my User model. Anyway - I digress.
Here is the array:
Array
(
[User] => Array
(
[email_address] => [email protected]
[id] => 28
)
Jeremy - thank you for the time. I do appreciate you and everyone on
this site for that matter for all of the guidance and look forward to
the day I can help newbies.
