Question

can any one help me to use the mysql inbuilt function in cakePHP?????

Answer 1

If you don’t want to use

$this->Model->query($yoursql);

Then there’s still another way for some mysql functions such as concat,date_format

$this->Model->find($findtype,array('fields'=>array('concat (column1,column2,...) as con','date_format(...) as mydate'),'conditions'=>...));
