I use the layout in my application but do have times where I need to change
or disable it.
To disable the layout in a controller this works,
Zend_Layout::getMvcInstance()->disableLayout();
To change the layout from in any controller without a lot of code changes.
// can adjust the layout path using
Zend_Layout::getMvcInstance()->setLayoutPath('new-path-here');
// will use the layout path setting (loads account_base_page.phtml)
Zend_Layout::getMvcInstance()->setLayout('account_base_page');
// assign var to layout directly
Zend_Layout::getMvcInstance()->assign('title', 'this is a title');
To display the title var in the layout template, use the following:
echo $this->layout()->title;

In a 1-off scenario, I prefer method 3. No config necessary.
Zend_Layout::startMvc();
$this->_helper->layout->setLayout('foobaz');

A couple of additional ways...
3) Add the layout setup code to the controller init method.
4) If you find yourself having to do the above a lot, create an
action
helper with the layout setup code which you would then call in the
controller init method or wherever you need it.
Just wanted to throw those out there though if it were me I think I
would
prefer 1 or 2. The ZF is very flexible and will bend to your will!!
