Two simple questions, with hopefully easy answers:
----------------------------
1) The render() function and it's paramaters
---------------------------
I've been reading forums, snippets of code, this group and the API,
and I still get confused by the use of the render() function used by
controllers.
Documentation would suggest that it's:
$this->render($action, $layout, $file);
Where $action is an action/function/something?
I've seen in another post that it's more like:
$this->render('myView', 'myLayout');
This makes more sense to me. Does $action really just imply the view
that's associated with the that particular action?
I know it's a simple question, but it seems a lot of the official
documentation is written by people very familiar with their own code -
which makes it harder for a cakeNoob like me to learn cake.
I would have explored this on my own with experimentation, but I'm
trying to use it in context of the $ajax->form() method, but am a long
way off from learning how to use that successfully.
------------------------------
2) An 'ajax' layout?
------------------------------
Whenever I see the snytax " $this->render($action, $layout) " , I see
most people use 'ajax' for the layout parameter (usually because they
are using the render method along with some Ajax action). My question:
is there a universal 'ajax' layout? If so, or even if not, what would
a typical 'ajax' layout look like?
Thanks for the help -
Hopefully it won't be too long before I can provide some help back to
the community at large.
