Hi Bingo,
The key to being able to sort is to get the findAll method (or if that
turns out to not be direcltly possible your custom, but exactly the
same format, sql query) to return you what you want rather than a sql
query followed by a php for each loop.

hi bakers

Now, I did find a solution for specifying the query, but getting a
trouble on how to set pagination. I want to set the pagination on name,
count or id
any ideas on how to do to set pagination.

Thanks AD7six and Christoph,
got everything working with minimum SQL and in a clean way...
For others reference.this was my solution
$criteria = array('user_id' => "{$userid}"); // basicaly get id of the
user
$songlist = $this->SongsUser->findAll($criteria, array('song_id'),
null, null, -1
Ps.
Forgot to include this link, which might be useful in creating the
constraint on your Song model:

Hi Bingo,
The sql above seems a bit overcomplex, maybe I'm mising something.
Why not:
Create a list of unique Singer/Artist Ids from the song model
Use that list of Ids.
?
To create the singer id list would be something like $data =
$this->Singer->Song->findAll(null,array("DISTINCT
'Song.sing
hi,
Thanks to Christoph. I found a solution but wondering is there any
better way to get rid of this long SQL query. Its fine for me to have a
multistep procedure
$query = <<< SQL
select
Users.id as user_id,
Users.name as user_name,
Singers.id as singer_id,
Singers.name as singer_name,
Hi Christoph,
Thanks for the query. I got it working.
About your question...It is not necessary to fetch all the data at
onceactually I was expecting a multistep procedure...the way it
will be going to work is that the user clicks on button (title "Show
singers") and then in the view a list
Hello again :-)
Ok, I think I understand, misinterpreted your question.
I am not sure, if this is the best solutioin (honestly I don't think
so), but you could do a custom query
... in the UsersController:
_
$query = <<< SQL
select
Users.id as use
Hi Christoph,
Thanks for the reply. But I am trying to extract "unique singers" based
on the songs in the library of the user. In the above result, I will
get duplicate values for singers and I will need check for duplication
at PHP level. Isn't there any way to specify a query that determines

Hello Bingo,
tried the whole scenario:
// in the UsersController

...
$data = $this->User->findAll();
$this->set('data',$data);

You should get a structure like this:
_
Array
(
[0] => Array
(
[User] => Array
