Re: Dumb Question

if you are using Zend_Controller_Front as I am you can set it as a parameter:

$frontController = Zend_Controller_Front::getInstance();
$frontController->setParam('db', $db)

and then in your controller:

$this->getFrontController()->getParam('db')

So many ways to skin a cat.

In my index.php bootstrap file I setup the database connection into a
variable $db. Now I need to access this in other controllers. This
seems like a dumb question to me but do I need to global $db; before I
can access it in the indexAction method of the controller or is it in
the global scope by default?
