Hi,
I have a mail layout, and two mail views (text and html). From my
controller I can render emails just fine with these three, BUT I want
to store the rendered emails in my mail queue in the database.
Therefore I would like to *grab* the rendered result and put it into a
variable before I write the mail queue record into the db. How is this
done?
This is what I've came up with so far (controller code):
function _mailHtml() {
// save the controller's layout temporarily
// while switching to the email layout
$store_layout = $this->layout;
$this->layout = 'email/html/default';
ob_start(); // start output buffering
$this->render('email_html');
$rendered = ob_get_clean();
// set the controller's layout back to what it was
$this->layout = $store_layout;
return $rendered;
}
This does not work. The html mail gets rendered instead of the
controller action I want to render after I called this function, and
in an addition to that the $rendered return variable stays empty...
I think I am missing something here. Could anyone point me in the
right direction, please?
