I don't know if this is 100% correct... I made this once so...
1. in your view setup you give the path to find the helpers:
class My_Controller_Plugin_ViewSetup extends Zend_Controller_Plugin_Abstract
{
$viewRenderer =
Zend_Controller_Action_HelperBroker::getStaticHelper('viewRenderer');
$viewRenderer->init();
$view = $viewRenderer->view;
$dir = dirname(__FILE__) . '/../../../../app/views/helpers'; // path
to the main view helpers
$view->addHelperPath($dir);
}
2. builder your helpers eg:
class Zend_View_Helper_GiveMeThis
{
function GiveItToMe()
{
return "bla bla bla";
}
}
3. in your layout.phtml
<?php echo $this->GiveItToMe(); ?>
