Re: How do I display all comments for a post.

foreach ($posts as $post) //main foreach for displaying posts
{
    ///somewhere where you want comments do this
   foreach ($post['Comment'] as $comment)
   {
      pr($comment);
   }
}

I have 2 tables, posts and comments.  I have setup posts hasMany
comments and comments belongsTo posts model relations.  I am using a
foreign key in the comments table pointing back to the post id.

I want to display the Post and the all related comments.  At the
moment I can display the post and a specified comment by using the
View code below.  How do I display all the comments for a post?


View Code:
       <?php
       $i = 0;
       foreach ($posts as $post):
               $class = null;
               if ($i++ % 2 == 0) {
                       $class = ' altrow';
               }
       ?>
       <div class="homepage<?php echo $class;?>">
               <p><h3><?php echo $post['Post']['title']; ?></h3></p>
               <p><?php echo $post['Post']['body']; ?></p><br />

<!-- Comments below -->
<p><?php echo $post['Comment']['0']['body'];?></p>
</div>
<?php endforeach; ?>


This is the pr() output:

Array
(
 [0] => Array
       (
           [Post] => Array
               (
                   [id] => 2
                   [title] => A title once again
                   [body] => And the post body follows.
                   [created] => 2011-03-17 09:15:40
                   [modified] =>
               )

           [Comment] => Array
               (
                   [0] => Array
                       (
                           [id] => 2
                           [post_id] => 2
                           [title] => COMMENTSA title once again
                           [body] => AndCOMMENTS the post body
follows.
                           [created] => 2011-03-22 16:31:03
                           [modified] =>
                       )

                   [1] => Array
                       (
                           [id] => 4
                           [post_id] => 2
                           [title] =>
                           [body] => This is another comment for the
first post
                           [created] => 2011-03-22 17:28:34
                           [modified] => 2011-03-22 17:28:34
                       )
