/----------------------------- Thank You for your help Geoff.
Although I can't seem to quite get it... I am not sure if I am using
the helper the proper way.
Updated Views:
Index View
<?=$ajax->form(array('action'=>'/yahoo/showresult'), 'post',
array('update'=>'questionID','loading'=>"Toggle.display('spinner');",'complete'=>"Toggle.display('spinner');stripe();"))?
>
<?=$html->image('spinner.gif', array('alt'=>'spinner',
'id'=>'spinner', 'style'=>'display:none;'))?>
<fieldset>
<label for="showresult">Search:</label>
<?=$html->input('Yahoo/yahoosearch',array('type' => 'text', 'size'
=> '25'))?>
<?=$html->submit('Find')?>
</fieldset>
<div id="questionID"></div>
</form>
showresult View
<?php
// app/views/yahoo/show.thtml
foreach ($question as $answer)
{
echo "<h3><a href='{$answer->ClickUrl}'>{$answer->Title}</a></h3>";
echo "{$answer->Summary}
[<a href='{$answer->CacheUrl}'>Cached Version</a>]";
}
?>
Yahoo_Controller
<?php
// app/controllers/yahoo_controller.php
class YahooController extends AppController
{
var $helpers = array('Html', 'Ajax');
var $layout = 'yahoo';
function index()
{
}
function showresult(){
if(!empty($this->data) && isset($this->data['Yahoo']
['yahoosearch']))
{
$yahoosearch = $this->data['Yahoo']['yahoosearch'];
$yahoo = new
Zend_Service_Yahoo("9Jd3X77V34H7qkFUr4RPUBOe5Uw77BnFogvFtRymuyW7pWMxwcadkV.Ag4QwluKU7tu9Hwo-");
$question = $yahoo->webSearch('$yahoosearch');
return $question;
}
else {
$this->render('index');
}
}
function show($yahoosearch = null)
{
$this->set('question', $this->Yahoo->getResultsby($yahoosearch));
}
}
?>
Any Help on this would be greatly appreciated again thanks for your
time.
