A bit of "request action" might be the way forwards; as the menu itemsare at least in part contextual: there is also a tutorial I wrote onthe wiki with regards to "CSS Menus" which indicates a different
approach to seperating the logic (component) from the display(element). Might be useful, at least in contrast/to evaluateapproaches.Cheers,AD7sixPS. never seen the CSSPlay gallery before - like it.

Dynamic Sidebar based on Controller/Content

2006-07-23 Thread Bobby Ryterski
I've been fiddling with CakePHP for a month or so now and I must say I like it.  I like enough to develop the next generation of the Livin' Dead Productions site with it.  The current version (located at 
http://ldp.blackhawkdata.com for the moment.  Domain problems are not fun) is pretty simple.  I took my cousin's idea, cleaned it up and wrote some PHP.  I think a CakePHP site would be much better.I've got most of the basic stuff layed out and some coded.  I have a fluid layout (it expands with the browser window) with a header, global nav, sidebar, content and a footer.  I'd like to have dynamic content in the sidebar, but not just any dynamic content.  I want to have content based on the content of the page.  For example, I'm working on a gallery function under the art controller.  It will output a nice little image gallery based on a CSS Play gallery (
http://cssplay.co.uk/menu/gallery_click.html) containing the art the user has specified (in other words, dynamic galleries).  In the gallery, the sidebar would have links to refine the gallery with a search page and perhaps a link to the most popular or pre-set galleries.
I was wondering the best way to accomplish this.  I'm figuring a bit of coding in the sidebar component of the layout.  $this->requestAction() could call a sidebars controller for that particular page or a sidebar function for the current controller.
Any help or suggestions would be great.  I'm sure I could scrape something together, but a little collaboration would be better and hopefully help some other people too.-- If at first you don't succeed, destroy all evidence that you tried.

Hi, my name is Nate, and I'm a core developer of the CakePHP project.I also frequent this mailing list and answer questions as I have timeto do so.  Sometimes, when I answer a question, there might be one or

more follow-up questions, and that's okay.What's not okay is emailing those follow-up questions to me directly.Not only are you denying future readers the benefit of the informationbeing exchanged, but you could also be denying yourself a quicker
answer, since there are other people on the list who may know theanswer to your question, and may be able to get to it more quickly thanI can.If you have something specific to tell me, would like to speak in
private, or are answering a particular question that I asked you, theanswer to which wouldn't be relevant to many other people, then by allmeans, email me.  But if you are writing to remind me to answer a
question you asked, or to follow up with more information about a
problem you are having, do yourself and everyone else a favor and emailthe list, not me.Thank you all for your time, and have a nice day.
