Hi,
I've been playing around with a simple database with two tables: User and Profile. Profile has a foreign key, which points to the User table. Now what I wanted to achieve is a profile view, where I can display both data from the User and Profile tables.
I've noticed that there is this nice widget CDetailView, but the problem is with the attributes. E.g.

$this->widget('zii.widgets.CDetailView', array(
	'data'=>$profile,
	'attributes'=>array(
		'fname',
		'sname',
	),
)); 

displays the Profile model attributes fine (according to the attributeLabels() method). Now if I want to access the User table through the ActiveRecord relation, the attribute labels aren't as they should be.

$this->widget('zii.widgets.CDetailView', array(
	'data'=>$profile,
	'attributes'=>array(
		'fname',
		'sname',
                'user.username'
	),
)); 

displays User Username instead of the attribute label configured in the User model.

I would appreciate any help with this. Or maybe I'm trying to do too much with that widget? Is there a better way? A simple HTML table with php displaying the values from models works, but I wanted something more elegant and flexible.

Thanks for your help,
Regards,
Bill

Hi lenye,
Thanks for your help . The 'value' property brought me to an idea, and now it works:

$this->widget('zii.widgets.CDetailView', array(
	'data' => $profile,
	'attributes'=>array(
		'fname',
		'sname',
		array(
			'label' => $profile->user->getAttributeLabel('username'),
			'value' => $profile->user->username
		)
	),
));

To clean up the code, I shall probably pass the User table model explicitly to the view, so I can have

$user->username

instead of

$profile->user->username

.

Regards,
Bill

Also, you can defined a method named getUsername() in your profile model,then you can get username by $date->username .

function getUsername(){
  return $this->user->username;
}

if you have to use username frequntly in profile, you can go this way.

That code should help You:

$this->widget('zii.widgets.CDetailView', array(
        'data'=>$profile,
        'attributes'=>array(
                'fname',
                'sname',
                array(
                   'label'=>'username',
                   'type'=>'raw',   // here's a parameter that disable HTML escaping by Yii 
                   'value'=>'$data->user->username', // here You can simple use CHtml::link() method
                 ),
        ),
));

Take a look at here

BTW
I couldnt find a way of sending an array of two models as data to CDetailView and properly referencing them inside a view.

You should also be able to do it without creating an array, just by:

$this->widget('zii.widgets.CDetailView', array(
        'data'=>$profile,
        'attributes'=>array(
                'fname',
                'sname',
                'user.username',
        ),
));

This works thanks.
