Hey,
Thanks for the pointers. After some confusion and searching here i
have overwritten the redirect() function in AppController like so: -
class AppController extends Controller {
var $components = array("RequestHandler");
function redirect($url) {
if($this->RequestHandler->isAjax()) {
echo "got here";
$this->requestAction($url, array("ajax"));
exit(0);
} else {
parent::redirect($url);
exit(0);
}
}
}
But this doesn't seem to have helped, and firebug spits back the
request at me with "got here" but not the page i have requested with
the requestAction($url). I really have no idea what else to try, I
was convinced that the re-written redirect() would have it covered as
it is mentioned many times around here, but still something is wrong.
Oddly enough if i type the url i wanted to redirect to in the address
bar directly after the failed redirect, the action has definately been
called as it has correctly set my session data and displays the page
with the "xyz is logged on". So its calling the action but not
rendering the page it seems.
Help!!
