I emptied out the element and included it and tried just getting it to
show up with "test" as the content, which worked. I then rewrote the
element line by line starting with 1) HTML 2) Regular PHP 3) PHP using
Cake objects until I got a fully functioning element and never ran
into the problem again. So I have no idea what the problem was.
The other bothersome thing is that I never had to pass any variables
to it or tell it to loadHelpers despite it using both Form and
Paginator. Oh well...Rob
