for response: just create a view like (but not 'default' layout, make a new
layout 'ajax') in others functions
how to detect ajax: $this->request->is('ajax')
CONTENT FOR ajax.ctp layout:
<?php print $content_for_layout; ?>
and in controller to enable this layout:
$this->layout = 'ajax';
why this ? this will return just your 'archieve' view

> Hello,
>
> I haven't used AJAX so far because I never needed it. I read the
> manuals regarding it, now I am wondering how to do it in cake. My task
> is following:
> I have a list of users. Next to each user I have a button which says
> archive. On click I have to archive the user. Now, I don want to
> reload the whole page so I want to use AJAX.
> The way I see it, I would create a regular AJAX call to my url which
> is function just like any other in cake, like /users/archive/57 where
> number 57 is id in the database (it will be generated for each
> button).
> On server side I would perform the function, but how do I return
> response. Do I just echo it ? And how does the cake knows it was an
> AJAX call and that it needs to send a response to a client. And is it
> ok, for the response to be just a simple ok , or notok string , and
> then if ok, I just change the archive sting into yes from no in the
> user list.
>
> Can you please give me like quick steps of how would you do it with a
> quick syntax example.
>
> Like : 1) Create a client call to the server
> 2) Execute function on server the normal way you wold
> 3) Send response to client (please explain how)
>
> Thank you in advance,

> All the best
