Place the code in the model and pass the Session data as vars from the controller?
-----Original Message----- From: Jeremy Burns [mailto:jeremybu...@classoutfit.com] Sent: September-03-10 2:24 AM To: CakePHP Subject: Component code I have a chunk of code that appears in two controllers (orders_controller and order_items_controller) that is virtually identical in each case. I'd like to move it to a single location, so this sounds like an ideal candidate for a component. Part of the code calls a function in the Order model, so whilst one calls it via $this->Order->function() the other calls it via $this- >OrderItem->Order->function(); hence the difference. I could also consider moving the code into the Order model and calling it from both controllers, but unfortunately the code also refers to $this->Session, which is not allowed in models. So I'm stuck. I can't move it to a component because a component can't call a model function, and I can't move it to a model because a model can't talk to the Session. Any ideas?
