Thanks for the replies.
I created a SidebarController with a sidebarAction() function. In
sidebar.phtml I have coded the template for my sidebar. Next, I registered
this with the actionstack like this:
$this->_helper->actionStack('nav', 'nav','default');
$this->_helper->actionStack('sidebar', 'sidebar','default');
This is not a good solution however, because I would have to use the
actionstack in all of my contollers. I want to control what is in the
sidebar from the SidebarController.
I think I can code a Front Controller Plugin??? That will take care of this
for me... Maybe?
I'm struggling with this step though. Any advice?
Cheers,
J
