Thanks, I ended up solving it using an element and removing the ajax setting from the render call, thanks for your help.

To make reusable bits of code, you /should/ make use of elements. I don´t quite follow what you mean about multiple calls to renderElement, surely the element in this context would contain either the form or the table, so at most there would be 2 elements. Also, generally speaking, it's a bad idea to specify ajax in a render call in a controller ($this->render(x, 'ajax');) That's what the request handler does for you automatically - if someone accesses the url for your ajaxed controller action directly (or doesn't have js enabled) they are not going to see a layout if you hard code to use the ajax layout. A different way of thinking would be to replace your $this->render in your view with echo $ths->requestAction(UrlToDisplayResults); and remove all controller logic for creating the table data from your bureauPage action/controller. The examples below might help (or perhaps some of the other permutations): http://www.noswad.me.uk/Pagination/Form http://www.noswad.me.uk/Pagination/PRG/Ajaxed You can get the source from the demos tab, note that for the second example the view does not make use of elements but it should (in keeping with what I said above). Anyway, HTH or at least gives something to think about. AD7six Please note: The manual/bakery is a good place to start any quest for info.
