First, I'm hoping this is just a snippet of one of your action helper's
class methods, 'cause otherwise this won't work.
Second, when in your action helper, use:
$this->getResponse()
to get the response.
As for the issues you show below, they don't make sense, unless you're
trying to execute the above code outside the MVC environment -- for
instance, just to test the code out. I can't personally reproduce the
issue currently, which makes me think it's contextual.
