I'm not talking about passing variables to the view for that controller. All
my views are set up perfectly for every controller. For my cars class I
have a car controller and a views/cars/index.ctp.... etc which utilizes all
the set variables from car_controller.php actions. This is not an issue for
me.
The problem is that my webpage toolbar that shows on every page is set up in
the view/layout/default.ctp. However the default.ctp is not associated to
any controller so I am not able to access any data from the other
controllers. the default.ctp is weird to me because it also doesn't have
it's own controller or model. So I also can't pull data from other models.
All I use the default.ctp for is to have my "Home" "Profile" "Login"
"Logout" "Register" buttons which are just $html->link (controller/action).
What I want to include in this tool bar is some data from my car class, but
I can't figure out how....
