My apologies for not explaining better:
Controller:
The view has the following:

        $this->set('author', $this->Author->read(null, $id));


The View Contains the Following

<?php
                $i = 0;
                foreach ($author['Post'] as $post):
                        $class = null;
                        if ($i++ % 2 == 0) {
                                $class = ' class="altrow"';
                        }
                ?>
                <tr<?php echo $class;?>>
                        <td><?php $post['name'] ?></td>
                        <td><?php                                    ?></td>    
   ****This is where I want all the tags for this post but I can't figure out 
how what is the array/variable (IE  something like...  $post['Tags']['name'] 
                        <td><?php echo $post['created'];?></td>
                        <td><?php echo $post['modified'];?></td>
                </tr>
        <?php endforeach; ?>

The relationships in the models are setup correctly because the scaffold works 
without a problem.  I just want to display the data in the Authors page.
