Re: Access cake data from external php script
Paolo, If you use cake 1.2, you can set Router::parseExtension('xml') in core.php. If you call your action from external application, using "http:// myhost. com/app/controller/action.xml", cake will look for a ctp in this form view/xml/action.ctp (note the subfolder "xml"). In this view you can just return xml. You also have an xml helper in the core that can help you to "format" your xml. hth On Dec 13, 5:47 pm, Martin Wood-Mitrovski <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > What I have done when faced with a similar situation (existing php site / > scripts needs stuff from my cake app) is to generate the required page > fragments > in cake and pull them in using file_get_contents($url_to_piece_of_cake) > > works fine. > > You'll probably want to create and use a layout just for those pieces, mine is > just this : > > > > then make sure you render that layout in the controller : > > $this->render("viewName","layoutName"); > > then just put whatever you need into the view. > > Paolo wrote: > > Hi all! > > > I created a website for a real estate agency using cake.

Re: Access cake data from external php script
What I have done when faced with a similar situation (existing php site / scripts needs stuff from my cake app) is to generate the required page fragments in cake and pull them in using file_get_contents($url_to_piece_of_cake) works fine. You'll probably want to create and use a layout just for those pieces, mine is just this : then make sure you render that layout in the controller : $this->render("viewName","layoutName"); then just put whatever you need into the view.

Re: Access cake data from external php script
if you want only to retrieve data you could use your cake application as web service returning xml for example. Now if you want to return a view or part of a view, I guess you should make an $ajax request from your external application..(take care if you have links in the returned views).. hth On Dec 13, 5:29 pm, Paolo <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi all! > > I created a website for a real estate agency using cake.

Re: Access cake data from external php script
No I just want to return data, I think the xml solution could be great! How can I tell cake not to render the page? Is there a method to create xml or should I create it by myself?
