# Aug 7th 2008, 12:31 TommyO stevieboy: assuming it's app/webroot/junk/somecrappy.php you should use url: "/junk/somecrappy.php" and cake will not get fired up
# Aug 7th 2008, 12:30 stevieboy but that was too much work to just try it
# Aug 7th 2008, 12:30 stevieboy i'm sure there's a cake-way with update-div etc
# Aug 7th 2008, 12:30 stevieboy i dont know, just found that and wanted to try it
# Aug 7th 2008, 12:29 stevieboy the sort.php which updates the div
# Aug 7th 2008, 12:29 TommyO although I don't know why you wouldn't do that in cake
# Aug 7th 2008, 12:29 teknoid stevieboy: your controllers should handle all ajxas stuff
# Aug 7th 2008, 12:29 stevieboy http://baglan.web.tr/ajax-sorting-scriptaculous
# Aug 7th 2008, 12:29 TommyO stevieboy: ah... yes, the .htaccess rules won't trigger if the file exists in webroot
# Aug 7th 2008, 12:29 stevieboy but the router interfers with the call
# Aug 7th 2008, 12:29 stevieboy i have a certain php-file handling an ajax-request
# Aug 7th 2008, 12:28 teknoid stevieboy: if your php files are under webroot they should work as normal i.e. site.com/somefile.php ... same applies to sub dirs
# Aug 7th 2008, 12:28 TommyO $html->link() ?
# Aug 7th 2008, 12:28 TommyO stevieboy: call? as in redirect?
# Aug 7th 2008, 12:26 jaredhoyt np
# Aug 7th 2008, 12:25 thestaff jaredhoyt, wokrs ! thanks
# Aug 7th 2008, 12:25 stevieboy another question: how can I call a specific external php from cake without the routing interfering
# Aug 7th 2008, 12:24 TommyO tbranyen: no need for constructs because there are tons of handly callbacks. ex: in the controller, beforeFilter() happens before the action is called and is vital for setting stuff up
# Aug 7th 2008, 12:24 jaredhoyt dunno, haven't used 1.1 in a long time, just try it =P
# Aug 7th 2008, 12:24 thestaff jaredhoyt, is it the same then ?
# Aug 7th 2008, 12:24 charun tbranyen: A framework does the opposite - it enables you to code much better :)
# Aug 7th 2008, 12:23 thestaff i'm in 1.1 tho
# Aug 7th 2008, 12:23 tbranyen tbh i've never used a framework before, i always thought it would limit my potential
# Aug 7th 2008, 12:23 jaredhoyt thestaff: just use $this->layout = 'layout_name';
# Aug 7th 2008, 12:23 thestaff and that would skip the default one ?
# Aug 7th 2008, 12:23 tbranyen yeah TommyO I remember reading that
# Aug 7th 2008, 12:23 thestaff jaredhoyt, setlayout() maybe no ?
# Aug 7th 2008, 12:23 TommyO tbranyen: FYI all methods in a controller(except the core methods) that do not begin with _ are considered 'actions' and are accesible via the url. so index() is not a construct, but an action, like /somecontroller/index. it is also the default action if someone goes to /somecontroller (no action specified)
# Aug 7th 2008, 12:22 tbranyen i'm so dumb
# Aug 7th 2008, 12:22 tbranyen oh god
# Aug 7th 2008, 12:22 tbranyen read() returns an array
# Aug 7th 2008, 12:22 tbranyen unless..
# Aug 7th 2008, 12:22 tbranyen Just checked the function stripScripts and it asks for a string and returns a string
# Aug 7th 2008, 12:22 jaredhoyt anthony: why not?
# Aug 7th 2008, 12:22 anthony i don't think you should set the layout in the View
# Aug 7th 2008, 12:22 tbranyen $sanitized = Sanitize::stripScripts($this->Post->read());
# Aug 7th 2008, 12:22 tbranyen TommyO: Odd that this line will not work
# Aug 7th 2008, 12:21 jaredhoyt thestaff: $this->layout in the view
# Aug 7th 2008, 12:21 thestaff one view
# Aug 7th 2008, 12:21 thestaff no just for on view
# Aug 7th 2008, 12:21 anthony thestaff: for the whole controller you can set the Controller's layout variable
