hi all

i have two models action and cycle, the relation between them is many to many

a action A1 may be associated to one or many cycles C1, C2…

in the action admin view, i want to display the cycles for the action in cgridview

Action Name cycles

A1 C1

A2 C1,C2

i tried to write the following

$this->widget(‘zii.widgets.grid.CGridView’, array(

'id'=>'action-grid',


'dataProvider'=>$model->search(),


'filter'=>$model,


'columns'=>array(


	'Name',


         array(


		'name'=>'cycles',


		'value'=>implode(", " , $model->cycles),


	),// 'cycles'


	


	array(


		'class'=>'CButtonColumn',


	),


),

an error appears: htmlspecialchars() expects parameter 1 to be string, array given

can any one help me how to display it correctly

thank you
