Hi all,

I am leaning cakePHP.
I noticed that a variable $name is declared in each Controller.
What is its purpose?
Is it referring to the name of table Sites?

<?php
class SitesController extends AppController { 
var $name = 'Sites';
...
}
?>

If yes, Can users refer to more than one table like this?
var $name = 'Sites', 'Sites2', 'Sites3';
