Hi, I'm the last stupid newbie coming to illumination. I just started
using CakePHP on my WebSite (http://www.moonbiter.net), and was easy to
build the blog, guestbook and a few other things but now I don't know
how implement a theme mechanism.
I know that AppController have the layout variable I can use to include
a different... layout but I wanna also use different CSS that are
loaded in many different views, i.e. this is the index of the news
section:
<?php
echo $page->render_menu($menu);
echo $page->before_content(null,$logged,$errors,$notices);
echo $page->include_css('news');
?>
<?php echo
$this->renderElement('news', array("news" => $news));
?>
so a news-specific css is loaded only for news related pages, there're
others for guestbook, blog and so on. I'm using an helper called Page
that do a few things, one of them is including css files:
function include_css($name)
{
$output = '<link
href="'.$this->webroot.'themes/techmoon/css/'.$name.'.css"
rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" >';
return $this->output($output);
}
now I wanna continue using this method "include_css" and just change
the first line in this way:
$output = '<link
href="'.$this->webroot.'themes/'$this->theme.'/css/'.$name.'.css"
rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" >';
my problem it's that I don't know a way to send informations to the
helper. I set the theme in my controller but I can't retrieve a
controller reference in my little helper object... any suggestions?
Thanks in advance,
Federico, the stupid newbie
