What you are doing is perfectly fine, I personally use $this->helpers [] = 'Blah'; since it's quick and easy.
Cake will only load your helper once even if it appears multiple times in your helpers array, so don't even worry about checking for this. Heck, just include it twice to make sure it gets loaded! $this->helpers[] = 'Textile'; $this->helpers[] = 'Textile'; $this->helpers[] = 'Javascript'; $this->helpers[] = 'Javascript'; (j/k on that last bit by the way) On Dec 16, 11:31 pm, Rob Wilkerson <[email protected]> wrote: > How should I add multiple action-specific helpers?
