Re: Accessing schema in view
@the_woodsman, yes, the form helper does have knowledge of the schema of the database. If you have SQL debugging on, you will notice that pages with form-helpers on them will perform a DESCRIBE table_name, so that it is able to match the $form-input() with the correct type of input for the appropriate database field. Not sure how this will help you in getting the database schema available in the views though.

?php $modelName = 'YourModelNameHere'; if ($Model = ClassRegistry::getObject($modelName)) { debug($Model-schema()); } else { echo Model code$modelName/code not loaded; } ?
