Hi

I'm building a component, that in simple terms as an example has 2 tables: "users" and "users items". "users items" are connected to "users" through a FK.

On my user item page, I have created a new tabbed brick, where I would like to display "users items".

What would be the best way to achieve this?
Thanks :-)

- put the item form in as a brick, and in the options set "tab it"
- put the item fly in as a brick, and in the options set "tab it"
- fork the views/users/tmpl/item.fly.php
- in there, load the items as a grid

Something like that

Hi Romkabouter

I've already created my tabbed view (form and fly pages). I've dragged my pivot table to the fly page, and expanded the relation in my model ormLayout... So I see the relevant data in my object on the fly page now.
But is this the way to do it - the best way?

I think the best way is when you keep the forking to a minimum, so probably yes :)

Real time saver and great Component Builder tool ! I have been developing with J-Cook Pro Component Builder for several months now and can say with all honesty that this product/service is second to none. The product is feature rich and is being improved and added to all the time. Do yourself a favor if you need to build a Joomla! Component then you can do no wrong in trying the product. You will save on time and effort while being able to deliver your project on time. J-Cook pro does the hard work for you you then have the freedom to fully customise the end result for your own needs. 

One word: Awesome.
