Hi, yes, it is different controller - which is a bit of problem, as it needs to have request, params generated for it etc.
I found out so far that I could use partials for initial rendering of all components of my page, and then use "proxy" controllers that would forward requests to parts. But it's another level of complexity which I am not sure I want to deal with. Any ideas, please? H.
