Ryan,
Thanks for your reply. I was relying on CakePHP to automatcially add
the .ctp extension on the view filenames it derived from the 'action'
option I assign in the array. I build the URL like this:
echo "<dd>".$this->Html->link($link-
>description,array('controller'=>'somecontroller','action'=>'SomeThing','someothervalue'
=>'blah','anothervalue'=>'blahblah'))."</dd>";
In my controller, I have:
function SomeThing()
{
do something;
}
which automatically maps to the view file 'some_thing.ctp'. I do not
specify the .ctp since it automatically maps to the appropriate view.
This works if the .ctp is only html, however, if the .ctp is
dynamically generating a form (like the code I posted previously), it
gives me the download file pop up in IE. I am wondering if there is
something specific that I need to specify in the code if the browser
is IE.
Thanks again for your assistance. Erik
