Bob,
This is exactly what I do. I create a new Controller_Action like so
<?php
class App_Controller extends Zend_Controller_Action
{
protected $_redirector;
protected $_flashMessenger;
public function init()
{
$this->_flashMessenger =
$this->_helper->getHelper('FlashMessenger');
$this->_redirector = $this->_helper->getHelper('Redirector');
}
protected function flash($message,$to)
{
$this->_flashMessenger->addMessage($message);
$this->_redirector->gotoUrl($to);
}
protected function setMessages()
{
$this->view->messages =
join("",$this->_flashMessenger->getMessages());
}
public function postDispatch()
{
$this->setMessages();
parent::postDispatch();
}
}
Now all my controllers extend App_Controller. Which gives me access to
$this->flash('Vehicle Added','/member/vehicle/view/id/'.$vid);
In my Layout.phtml
<div class="leftFloat" id="columnRight">
<?php if(count($this->messages) > 0){
echo'<div align="center"
class="flashmessage">';
echo $this->messages;
echo '</div>';
}
echo $this->layout()->content ?>
</div>
Hope this helps
