Re: Stuck again ...
That will work, but that's really not what $session is designed for; you're not trying to store persistent data. I've used plenty of hacks like that myself, but I generally try to avoid them because it makes the code much less intuitive to others. And if there's a correct way of doing the same thing for the same amount of work, you may as well do it the standard way. AFAIK, Controller::set() and View::set() both set variables in View:: $viewVars and Controller::$viewVars (which gets passed to View:: $viewVars). So just use the set() function like you would normally, or you can manipulate the $viewVars property directly. There may be another way of doing it, but that's how I did it on a previous site when I needed to generate embedded javascript from within a helper. And FYI, the scripts that are going to be included through $scripts_for_layout are stored in View::__scripts.

Maybe I didn't get it right, but if you need a var globally available (controllers, views, layouts) you could use $session. Easy to set and read everywhere.
