Hi all,

I've been wondering if it is possible to use sub-layouts with my
views. Let me explain what I mean by "sub-layout":

I've got a layout/default.ctp setup to display header, content and
footer for the whole website. The body part is just a big div where
all the controller/action views are rendered. Now, I would like to use
a sub-layout within the content zone that, this sub-layout is
controller specific, for instance I have a controller that needs to be
rendered using a two column layout and another one with three columns
regardless of the action being performed by the controller.

I don't want to duplicate the controller specific layout to all the
different controller/action views which is why I'm thinking a sub
layout would be appropriate, rather than elements.

Here's what I want to achieve:
In default.ctp:
----
header code layout
begin content code layout
    $content_for_layout
end
footer code layout

Where $content_for_layout is such that:
---
begin controller specific layout
   view controller/action
end

Do I make sense? Am I splitting hairs? Is it possible? How should I go
about this?

Thanks for your input,

Marc
