The guys over on Sanisoft.com dropped us a line today to let us know about a new entry on their blog showing how to implement attach and detach behaviors in CakePHP models.

Behaviors are one of the best things that have been added to CakePHP 1.2, they allow you to add functionality to your models in a very elegant and modular fashion. They also promote a lot of code reuse. Perhaps a real life example would illustrate it better.

They show how to create behaviors that can perform a save() call on an image with the backend code doing all the hard work. They create the two methods - dontActAs and nowActsAs - to make attaching and detaching simple.
