Agreed with Brian. It may seem like the table is getting huge (which
it eventually will). But you're just keeping record of 2-3 INT data
types (depending on how you do the key), so much of it will fit into
memory anyhow. I wouldn't worry too much about join tables being a
source of slowness
Hello all,
Little question:
Say, i have two tables, USERS and PRODUCTS, for arguments sake.
Now, all the products in the PRODUCTS table are unique by some value,
say barcode, so it doesn't allow duplicates of the same product in the
table.
Now, a user can have several products associated with
$hasAndBelongsToMany
A User can have many Product(s) in hist shopping cart or something.
A Product can be in (have) many User's carts.

Ah, i saw it often, but I nevert had to use that link.
Thansk for the fast reply!
This Googlegroup never let's me down! :D
Anyway, it works, I get the right array from the database now, but how
can I make a SQL-query on this relationship that let's me get all the
products by a certain user?
I
Use ContainableBehavior:
$this-User-find(
'first',
array(
'conditions' = array(
'User.id' = $user_id
),
'contain' = array(
'Product'
)
)
);
