You're probably right that
9+ years of exposure to MySQL, Postgres and some Oracle mixed in there
as well gives me no real sql/database background.
Exposure? Sorry, what do that mean? I have been exposed to the sun,
quite a bit, that did not give me any specific insider

Um, I never said I was a DBA or looking to work as a DBA. I've never
been discounted from a position as a developer because I didn't know
what a view was or how to use it. And on top of it, you continue to
be incredibly rude towards me. Your little joke about exposure to the

Be warned that you have to be explicitly clear in aliasing your complex
queries, or Cake will not know what to do.
SELECT User.first_name, User.last_name FROM users User
If you're using SQL functions, don't forget to alias those as well...
The aliases are the foundation to RDBMS -

I have never used an SQL view and would love to see a real-world
example of when a view should be used over, say, the CakePHP model
combined with associations.
That's a pretty typical (and kinda sad) answer from someone with no real
sql/ database background, and happy with MySQL,

I've always had mixed feelings about this: in some ways using
triggers, stored procedures and the like seem to me like spreading
your application logic in too many places. I can see where they'd be
useful though, too.
No. ALL the business logic should be where it belongs, with

I would like to improve my rather crude login system. For now, after

I would like to trap or retrieve the URL the user intended to go to,
pass it as parameter to my login function, to redirect to this URL
instead of Home.

The SQL code generated looks OK, but I don't get the results...!
I am sure there is (are) better ways, I am still discovering cake (and
PHP, BTW)!
Here is the request generated (got it through debug):
SELECT Stock.product_id AS Stock__product_id,
Stock.location_id AS
As an answer to myself, further tests with postgresql let me see that I
need to replace the first left join by an inner join
SELECT Stock.product_id AS Stock__product_id,
Stock.location_id AS Stock__location_id, Stock.on_hand_units
AS Stock__on_hand_units, Stock.committed_units AS

It sounds to me like you could use arrays, which may negate the need
for all of these elseif's that you describe... maybe combined with a
foreach statement, building the query up inside there?
Thanks you, that make sense, I will look at this.

Yes you would - you don't need to call a function to 'create' an

nate ,
You're new to Cake and you already have a problem? Is that surprising
because you'd have expected to encounter a problem after having used it
for longer? I'd guess that it's more the other way around: you haven't
used it long, therefore you're inexperienced in addressing issues with
