Re: Use of $conditions
Just wanted to point out a few things I noticed: - know your parameters: findAll($conditions=null, $fields=null, $order=null, $limit=null, $page=1, $recursive=null) - the conditions parameter for functions such as findAll is for, well, conditions (the "where" clause in SQL)... not sorting. Use the $order parameter for sorting. - defining the var $conditions outside the function index definition as a class property will require you to us it with this syntax: $this- >conditions. I guess this is what you were aiming for: class ProgramsController extends AppController { var $name = 'Programs'; var $sort = "p_date DESC, p_time ASC"; var $title_for_layout = 'Lake-Sumter Computer Society'; var $helpers = array('Html', 'Form' ); function index() { $this->Program->recursive = 0; $this->set('programs', $this->Program->findAll(null, null, $this->sort)); } This link should be helpful for you on seeing function parameters: http://docs.cakephp.nu/classes/show/AppModel Good luck!

Re: Use of $conditions
I always thought the docs were a little shady on this. To do what you want to do... $this->Program->findAll(null, null, 'p_date DESC, p_time ASC') On Apr 30, 3:01 pm, k4mg <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I have made a simple (my first!) application using CakePHP and Bake. > It works fine, but I am unable to figure out how to add two more > capabilities.

Use of $conditions
I have made a simple (my first!) application using CakePHP and Bake. It works fine, but I am unable to figure out how to add two more capabilities. I would like to have my List view in order, and paginated so that the headers are always available. For the first, reading the documentation, it seems I should use $conditions as I did below. Of course, the list is still in as entered order, not sorted. Any help/examples for this and the pagination would be appreciated. class ProgramsController extends AppController { var $name = 'Programs'; var $conditions = "ORDER BY p_date, p_time"; var $title_for_layout = 'Lake-Sumter Computer Society'; var $helpers = array('Html', 'Form' ); function index() { $this->Program->recursive = 0; $this->set('programs', $this->Program->findAll($conditions)); } Barry --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Cake PHP" group.
