# Aug 6th 2008, 22:11 nymacro post element: http://bin.cakephp.org/view/65675558
# Aug 6th 2008, 22:10 nymacro *element
# Aug 6th 2008, 22:10 nymacro oh, forgot to put in the elemtn
# Aug 6th 2008, 22:10 nymacro that is the views
# Aug 6th 2008, 22:10 nymacro http://bin.cakephp.org/view/432638033
# Aug 6th 2008, 22:08 cobol code?
# Aug 6th 2008, 22:07 nymacro I can't use the same template unless I manually modify the representation
# Aug 6th 2008, 22:06 nymacro So I want to reuse the one element for both controllers/views
# Aug 6th 2008, 22:06 nymacro Sorry, let me clarify; I have an element which renders a post, and I want to use it both for post view, and for topic viewing all posts
# Aug 6th 2008, 22:06 cobol i dont really know
# Aug 6th 2008, 22:06 cobol i think?
# Aug 6th 2008, 22:05 cobol i would wager because your controller explicitly uses('Post')?
# Aug 6th 2008, 22:05 Jezek gotcha
# Aug 6th 2008, 22:05 nymacro in regards to [Post]
# Aug 6th 2008, 22:05 nymacro can anyone tell my why CakePHP behaves like this: http://bin.cakephp.org/view/1570690605
# Aug 6th 2008, 22:04 cobol the action takes the data and passes it to the view
# Aug 6th 2008, 22:04 cobol from the action
# Aug 6th 2008, 22:04 cobol and calling on that component
# Aug 6th 2008, 22:04 cobol Jezek: by putting the application logic that fetches it into a component
# Aug 6th 2008, 22:04 achew22 rar....
# Aug 6th 2008, 22:03 Jezek but how do i get the data into the element without using requestAction
# Aug 6th 2008, 22:03 cobol and the component is application logic
# Aug 6th 2008, 22:03 cobol so helpers and elements become the view logic code
# Aug 6th 2008, 22:03 nymacro hmmm
# Aug 6th 2008, 22:03 cobol it's basically the same thing, except for reusable code
# Aug 6th 2008, 22:03 Jezek yes
# Aug 6th 2008, 22:03 cobol well you know how in MVC, application logic goes in the controller, and view logic in the views?
# Aug 6th 2008, 22:02 Jezek not really
# Aug 6th 2008, 22:02 cobol does that all make sense?
# Aug 6th 2008, 22:02 Jezek oh ok
# Aug 6th 2008, 22:02 cobol *becomes
# Aug 6th 2008, 22:02 cobol and it because a black box to the controller's action
# Aug 6th 2008, 22:01 cobol you could then also easily integrate data caching in the component
# Aug 6th 2008, 22:01 cobol where the element handles it
# Aug 6th 2008, 22:01 cobol and pass it along to the view
# Aug 6th 2008, 22:01 cobol the application logic i would likely put in a component. the pages that use it would then call on the component to generate the data
# Aug 6th 2008, 22:01 cobol Jezek: no, the element is the view logic component
# Aug 6th 2008, 22:00 Jezek cobol, wouldn't i have to use requestaction in the element?
# Aug 6th 2008, 21:59 Jezek prettyy sure this is the cakephp channel
# Aug 6th 2008, 21:58 loki_racer whats another site like Pandora, not last.fm, that uses the browser to delivery music
# Aug 6th 2008, 21:58 Jezek alright
