I'm sorry, I am a newbie in CakePHP and I am a little bit confused in this subject, let me explain:
I have a relationship between two tables. One of the table is Dose and the other is tank. So, one Tank belongs to a Dose. A Dose has many Tanks. The table schema is:
CREATE TABLE `doses` (
`id` INT(10) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
`dose` INT(5) NULL DEFAULT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY (`id`)
)
In my Tank view I have the following code:
<?php echo $form->input('dose_id', array('class'=>'input', 'label' => ''));?>
Each 'dose' (field) from Dose table correspond to a value, such as 200, 300, and so forth. I need to use these numbers to calculate others numbers before to insert into my database (table tank). For instance, my code in tanks_controllers:
$t_u = $this->data['Tank']['tipo_uso_id'];
if( $t_u == '1'){
$this->data['Tank']['producao_adubo_diaria'] = $this->data['Tank']['dose_id'] * 0.10;
.
.
.
However, it is bringing to me the ID of the Dose and not the value (dose field). Where can I set up this to bring me the correct data (dose)? I tried to set up this way in my model:
'Dose' => array(
'className' => 'Dose',
'foreignKey' => 'dose_id',
'conditions' => '',
'fields' => 'dose',
'order' => ''
)
It did not work.
I appreciate your time helping me.
Thanks in advance.
