Hey, I did the exact same thing.
I created an app_error.php and there I can ovverride the actions for the errors like missingView, missingAction, even error404. I invoked the RequestHandler there, so I can render the correct template. For the layout I did what thatsgreat2345 suggested. I checked for a mobile call and just switch the layout there. This is working very well for me, as I don't know how to call $this->_outputMessage() and use my layout as a parameter. So it's working and even if it's not the best approach I like having a custom Error Hanlder (which is the app_error file) and I could use Sessions or other things here if I need this in the future :) Thanks guys, DD On 10 Mrz., 08:41, thatsgreat2345 <[email protected]> wrote: > What I would do is in your app_controller.php (if you don't have on > make it) you can create a function probably in beforeFilter to check > if it is mobile.
