Mmmm.. sorry, that should've been "am I right to thinK the element
creates a new instance of the helpers?!"
... so after a bit more investigation, it seems to be the case. Now
what I did to fix it... if anyone wonders is adding an init() function
to the pagination helper, and making sure the helper was initialised
before any other function would proceed...
code: (goes in the pagination helper)
var $initialized = false;
function init() {
if(!$this->initialized) {
if ( !empty($this->view->_viewVars['paging']) ) {
$this->setPaging($this->view->_viewVars['paging']);
}
$this->initialized = true;
}
}
then in every other function of the helper, I added $this->init();
Hope this helps anyone else! Anyhow... if somebody could confirm how
right or wrong I am.. I'd appreciate!
Cheers,
Seb.
