I'm not sure why it's not rendering the admin view but you shouldn't
be redirecting. Here's a simpler version:
function admin_switchStatus($id)
{
/* this also sets the model ID
*/
$news = $this->News->read(null, $id);
/* toggle field
*/
$this->News->saveField('active', 1 - $news['News']['active']);
/* need to have RequestHandler in $components
*/
if ($this->RequestHandler->isAjax())
{
Configure::write('debug', 0);
$this->layout = 'ajax';
}
$this->render('admin_index');
}
$('.switchStatus').click(function()
{
$.ajax({
url: $(this).attr('href'),
type: 'GET',
success:
function(data)
{
$('#mainContent').html(data);
},
error:
function (XMLHttpRequest, textStatus, errorThrown)
{
alert(textStatus);
}
});
return false;
});
