Hi List, I may be aproaching this incorrectly but it seems to me that the current helper I'm working on could use the ability to invoke a renderElement() call. However, it seems that for Cake 1.1.17 anyway, that renderElement is only meaningful in the view.
Well, my helper is accessed in a view, so I figured there had to be *some* link back out to the view that I could use to shoot off a renderElement. I First tried $this->view->renderElement(); but that didn't work. It says: Notice: Undefined property: ConcisePrinterHelper::$view Fatal error: Call to a member function renderElement() on a non-object (ConcisePrinterHelper is my Helper) So I print_r ed my $this at that point, and found that print_r thinks there is a view ??? So I print_r ed $this->view, and got Notice: Undefined property: ConcisePrinterHelper::$view Notice: Undefined property: ConcisePrinterHelper::$view Fatal error: Call to a member function renderElement() on a non-object The same error, once for the print_r then once for the invocation. Figuring this was something automagical, I added var $view = null; Now when I print_r ed $this->view it showed up as the View Object. But my invocation still got me: Notice: Undefined property: ConcisePrinterHelper::$view Fatal error: Call to a member function renderElement() on a non-object What am I missing? Isn't there a way for a Helper to get a view? Jeff --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Cake PHP" group.
