Thanks for the advice, I'll keep that in mind.
I used something similar in my admin module to render sidebar, just
inserting in the response in the init method of baseclass Admin controller.
However I had to change this because when using the json helper in some Ajax
action or simply disabling the layout for dynamic pdf output using these
lines:
$this->_helper->layout()->disableLayout();
$this->_helper->viewRenderer->setNoRender();
I still have the sidebar output in the final output.
I don't know if your solution suffers of this defect, I should try.
In every case, for my problem I solved using a view helper in this way
public function breadCrumbs() {
/** @var Zend_Controller_Front */
$fc = Zend_Controller_Front::getInstance();
$action = $fc->getRequest()->getActionName();
$controller = $fc->getRequest()->getControllerName();
$this->view->assign('links', $this->getParts($controller,
$action));
return $this->view->render('breadcrumbs.phtml');
}
It works and I can use the view script as above.
