Re: DetailsViewHelper (sort of)

Yes, What i´m doing is this, but this is what i want to avoid. As you see, you need to "manually" write the label. What if it changes? If it was not a problem, FormHelper would not implement a solution for this (label).

In my helper implementation i´m already using the formHelper label method implementation (almost full copy and paste). What i´m arguing is that a method for retrieving the Label text should be in other place, and the formHelper::label() method should use it.

Not entirely sure what you're looking for here. Regarding a simple way to to output data from the model, it seems simple enough to do:

<p>Field: <?php echo $model['Model']['field']; ?></p>

If you're looking for how FormHelper->label() formats the field name, you could reimplement the label function - http://api20.cakephp.org/view_source/form-helper#line-782

As i´m implementing a CRUD i was trying to make a Helper to make the rendering of a Details screen more easy.

The question is, If there is a FormHelper that i can use to help me render labels and fields, why does not exists a Helper to output simple (direct) data from a Model?

I ask this because as i was trying to implement a Helper like this, one of the things is to determine the Label (as in a form, but no <label> tag), and there is no isolated implementation to get this info, only on the FormHelper->label(). In my opinion the implementation to get the "text" of a label should go on other place (maybe on the Helper base class?) as this is a separated concept.

I´m wrong? There is other way to get this data?
