if you're after the colour, you could also get it like so:
// in products_controller.php
function color ($name)
{
// set id for color
$this->Product->Color->id = $id;
// set recursive var for Color model so it pulls proper product details in
$this->Product->Color->recursive = 2;
// find color details (and associated models
$color = $this->Product->Color->find();
}
this should output something along the lines of:
[Color] => Array (
[id] => 2
[name] => Lime
[hex] => 3beb63
[Product][0] => Array (
[id] => 2
[title] => Another Test Product
[description] => some more description and stuff yeah
yeah yay
[inventory] => 15
[price] => 3.49
[color_id] => 2 )
[Product] => Array (
[id] => 5
[title] => Green Headband
[description] => this is a nice green headband
[inventory] => 3
[price] => 2.54
[color_id] => 2 )
)

Re: association - foreach
I did have that class...and the model. I'll try adding "var $scaffold = true;" and see what happens.

Do you have this class? You need it. And put that getById function inside it.
You will also need to create a Color model, if you don't have one.
You could start with this:
Color->findById( $id ) ; }
}
?>

Good point. I'm getting this error using your code though: Missing controller You are seeing this error because controller ColorsController could not be found.

RE: association - foreach
> [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of ShepherdWeb > Thanks . No problem. Just thought I'd mention that in addition to being prettier, getting the color data from the color controller has another advantage. What happens if there are no products of that color? Keying off the product model will get you an empty set, and now you don't know what color you were looking for. If you go from the color model, you will get a color entry, and an empty set of products, so you will be able to tell the user, "Sorry, no mauve products." -- Regards, Ryan Ginstrom --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Cake PHP" group.

So...
In colors_controller:
function getById( $id )
{
$this->Color->id = $id ;
return $this->Color->read() ;
}
In products_controller:
function color( $id )
{
$this->set( 'data', $this->requestAction( "/colors/getById/$id" ) ) ;
}
// view same...
And you're good to go

Re: association - foreach
That makes sense. My current implementation is the other way around
though:
(my url looks like this: /products/color/)
in product_controller
function color($color_id = null)
{
$this->set('products',
$this->Product->findAllByColor_id($color_id);
}
I found this solution, but it doesn't seem very elegant to me. In the
view:
... Output data ...
... etc ...

So if you retrieve the color instead, you should have all its associated
products.
In color_controller:
function products( $id )
{
$this-Color->id = $id ;
$this->set( 'data', $this->Color->read() ) ;
}
In view:
Products
...
... Output data ...
