I'm trying the build a product review system, But I'm having trouble writing a function to calculate the average Rating. I can't seem to to get at the Ratings fields using DataObject::get.

Here is my Review Data Object

class Review extends DataObject
{
	static $db = array (
		'Date' => 'Date',
		'Name' => 'Text',
		'Email' => 'Text',
		'Title' => 'Text',
		'Location' => 'Text',
		'Rating' => 'Int',
		'Review' => 'HTMLText',
		'Approval' => 'Boolean'
	);
	
	static $has_one = array (
		'Product' => 'Product'
	);
	
	
	
	public function getCMSFields_forPopup()
	{
		$ratingArray = array (
						  '1' => '1',
						  '2' => '2',
						  '3' => '3',
						  '4' => '4',
						  '5' => '5'
						  );
		
		return new FieldSet(
			new CheckboxField('Approval'),
			new CalendarDateField('Date'),
			new TextField('Name'),
			new EmailField('Email'),
			new TextField('Title'),
			new TextField('Location'),
			new DropdownField('Rating','Rating',$ratingArray),
			new TextareaField('Review')
		);
	}
	

}

And this is the query in my Product Page:

$reviewContent = array(DataObject::get("Review","Approval = 1 AND ProductID =" . $this->ID));

When I Save the OUtput to an Array this is what I get:

Array
(
    [0] => DataObjectSet Object
        (
            [items:protected] => Array
                (
                    [0] => Review Object
                        (
                            [destroyed] => 
                            [record:protected] => Array
                                (
                                    [ID] => 1

I can't seem to drill past the ReviewObject using

array($reviewContent[0])

Not sure why you want to nest the dataobject get call in an array, thats a bit weird

$records = DataObject::get("Review","Approval = 1 AND ProductID =" . $this->ID);

$records will have all the info you need as a dataobjectset. Because it returns a dataobjectset you can iterate, find, filter everything through that.
