Hello everyone,
I'm new to CakePHP (like everyone else on here, it seems), and so I'm
having trouble utilizing the ajax helper to refresh a div containing
an element.
Right now I have my default (home) controller setup to show a view
which utilizes an element to pull in a truncated version of a search
result.
So you have:
home controller (no logic here yet) -> home view -> search element1
I'm trying to figure out a way to refresh the div the element is
within by calling the element with a different parameter (to apply a
filter, for example). In my home controller I have a
refreshSearchElement() method that tries to return the output of the
element, which my ajax observeField calls when a drop down menu is
changed.
Apparently that doesn't work, because I get 'Call to undefined method
HomeController::element()' when I call $this->element
('search_element_1'). I guess that only works in views?
Is there a way to pull in an element's contents inside a Controller
(and preferably utilize any caching)? Or can anyone recommend
different method to approach this?
Thanks!
