Hi Mark,
Thanks for the response. Am not confusing views with layouts. The files in
the structure i specfied are just for illustrative purposes. I have both my
partials and layouts in different folders - just for less confusion for me.
What i decided to do is to move the layout folder to the root and have all
my layouts for both the CMS and Main site in there. so the structure now
becomes:
- webapp
--> public_html
---> images
---> bla blah
--->controllers
--->views
--->layouts
--->layout.phtml
--->layout-browse.phtml
--->partials
-->modules
--->admin
--->controllers
--->views
