Re: Printing Variable in thtml
The proper way to do this seems to be
echo $html->tagValue('Order/dateoforder');
tagValue() is in the API for HtmlHelper, but maybe hard to find if you
don't know what you're looking for.
This will work whether the dateoforder was just sent by a form or if
you set the data in your controller with
$this->data['Order']['dateoforder'] = $some_date
If you use
$this->set('data', $this->data);
then you won't be able to output the $data values with tagValue() or
any other HtmlHelper form functions, which defeats the whole purpose
of using $data. At least, It doesn't work for me that way.

Re: Printing Variable in thtml
Read:
http://manual.cakephp.org/chapter/controllers
http://manual.cakephp.org/chapter/views
For example, depending on the controller/view, your example could be
as simple as: echo $order['dateoforder'] ...

assuming you've set the data to the view in your controller like so:
$this->set('data', $this->data);
this will give you a variable $data in your view, so you can get to
dateoforder like so:
on a side note, to help you with rapid prototyping with Scaffolding or
using the Bake functionality, you might want to follow database naming
conventions more, by using _ underscores in table names/field names,
like so:
date_of_order rather than dateoforder
this would mean when using scaffolding, Cake will be able to make the
field name into a human readable name, eg: Date of order, it can't do
that without the underscores.

Printing Variable in thtml
Hi
I have looked in the htmlhelper api and cant find anything for this.
echo $html->input('Order/dateoforder', array('size' => '53')
Htmlhelper just echos form elements I just want echo the value of
Order/dateoforder onscreen.
How do I do this, I looked in the API but cant find it.
