CakePHP: How to retrieve data by multiple condition - php

Question

Please help me to retrieve data from a table by multiple condition in Cakephp
I have one table name: article; I have tried to retrieve data with the code below
I want to get specific id as given in the parameter; article_price > 0 and article_status > 1
public function getArticle($artID = ''){
return $this->find('all', array(
'condition' => array(
'article_id =' => $artID,
'article_price' => '> 0',
'article_status = ' => '1'),
'order' => 'article_id DESC'
));
}
// the out put was selected all data without condition that I want.
What was the problem with my code?
What I found out is I print: echo $this->element ('sql_dump'); and I got the following sql statement:
SELECT `article`.`article_id`, `article`.`name`, `article`.`article_price`, `article`.`article_status` FROM `db_1stcakephp`.`article` AS `article` WHERE 1 = 1 ORDER BY `article_id` DESC
Please help me.
Thank!

If your model name is Article:
public function getArticle($art_id) {
return $this->find('first', array(
'conditions' => array(
'Article.article_id' => $art_id,
'Article.article_price >' => 0,
'Article.article_status >' => 1,
),
));
}
Using 'Model.field' syntax is optional, until your models have relationship and have the same names - for example Article.status and Author.status.
Moving comparison sign into array's key part allows you to do:
'Article.price >' => $minPrice,
'Article.price <=' => $maxPrice,
And I didn't really notice typo in 'conditions'.
