Helpers are called within views, not controllers.
Perhaps you can place that function somewhere else? Like in a model?

Re: calling helper functions from within the controller
Hello Chris, yes I know. Maybe I need a hint for my problem. I have written a new Helper. Now I want to set some variables, that I can use from within the helper (yes I know I could handle this with parameters), but I am trying to save some parameters, cause the values are always the same.

Re: calling helper functions from within the controller
Maybe parameters that do not change often can be in a config file .. ? Then use Configure::read where ever you are ... just a hint On Jul 11, 9:56 pm, Siegfried Hirsch [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hello Chris, yes I know. Maybe I need a hint for my problem.

Re: calling helper functions from within the controller
Hi Siegfried,
the subject says it all:
is it possible to call a helper function from within the controller.
Of course the helper is
included in the var $helpers = array('Myhelper');
class MyController extends AppController {
function index() {
$this-Myhelper-function_to_call(); // DOES NOT WORK - is it
possible in any way ?
}
}
Just an idea:
function index() {
$myHelper = new MyHelper();
$myHelper-function_to_call();
$this-set('myHelper', $myHelper);
}
