Listing manufacturers

Hey All,

I've started creating my first module and wanted to know if it's possible to call information from other controllers/models than the one being worked on.

For example, displaying a list of manufacturers. I was going to create a model/controller/, call up manufacturers from db, assign to an array, echo output.

Can I include product/manufacturers model to get information?

(a working example would be appreciated)
Thanks

The manufacture model can be loaded with: Once the model is loaded, you can access any function from the model. For example, to get a list of manufacturers, you would use: This would load all manufacturers into an array called $manufacturers. You can then manipulate the data how you want.

Thanks for the info, worked perfectly!

Finally getting to grips with it now so really appreciated, thanks
