Hi,

I'm trying to make a view element and reuse it in various  views. The
element uses the pagination helper, the problem is that the element
can't see the paginator helper object:

: Undefined variable: paginator [APP/views/elements/servers.ctp, line 7]

If I add the helper to the "uses" variable of the controller which
calls the action that includes the element on its view, then the
helper is found but I get these errors:

Warning (2): array_merge() [function.array-merge]: Argument #1 is not
an array [CORE/cake/libs/view/helpers/paginator.php, line 139]


The code of my element is something like the the following:

$servers = $this->requestAction('servers/index/');
?>
        <table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
        <tr>
                <th><?= $paginator->sort('Server Name', 'name');?></th>
                <th><?= $paginator->sort('IP Address', 'ip_address');?></th>
        </tr>
        <?php foreach ($servers as $server): ?>
        <tr>
                <td><?= $server['Server']['name']; ?></td>
                <td><?= $server['Server']['ip_address']; ?></td>
        </tr>
        <?php endforeach; ?>
        </table>
        <?php $paginate = $paginator->prev('<< Previous ', null, null);?>
        <?php $paginate .= $paginator->next(' Next >>', null, null);?>
        <?php $paginate .=  '<br/>'.$paginator->counter(); ?>
        <?=$html->div(null,$paginate, array('align' => 'center')); ?>

on the view that includes it:

echo $this->renderElement('servers');

and the controller action:

function index($id = null) {
  $servers = $this->paginate('Server');
  $this->set(compact('servers'));                                       
  if(isset($this->params['requested'])) {
     return $servers;
  }
}

So how is the propper way to use the pagination helper on a view element ?

Thanks.
