Thanks for replying.
The action view helper isn't really what i'm after - that would assume the
address needs to be assigned to the view, so the view helper can make the
lookup. What i'm after is a seperate request to obtain the addresses
geocodes before it is inserted into the db, so all the information is
complete.
I rustled up something last night using the ActionStack controller helper:
from within my AddressController, before the address is inserted:
$response = $this->_helper->actionStack('address',
'Geocode',
'default',
array('address'=> $addressQueryString));
...which calls...
class GeocodeController extends Zend_Controller_Action
{
public function addressAction(){
$viewRenderer =
Zend_Controller_Action_HelperBroker::getStaticHelper('viewRenderer');
$viewRenderer->setNoRender(true);
$request = $this->getRequest();
echo $request->getParam('address');
}
}
So far i'm still reading up how to return a json response, but i'm also
figuring out how the actionstack really operates - it seems to discontinue
the current request and initiate a new one, instead of firing a kindof
subrequest - in fact i'm not even sure that's possible, but i'll keep on
reading. In the meantime, any pointers would be appreciated :)
