It would mainly be for the view. in the controller i would call the
requestAction and assign the output to a view variable using set():
$this->set('someBlock',$this->requestAction('Controllers/_Method',array('foo'=>'bar')));

It seems that the consensus is to put the blocks into elements and if
they have data use a requestAction inside the element that returns a
data array containing whatever information you need. There are lots of
other ways to skin this cat, depending on your situation and how many
blocks you are ta

RequestAction is simulating a url - so I wouldn't expect it to work
with _ methods. If you wanted to protect a method such
RequestAction returns the rendered view template if I'm correct ...
I'm not sure but I think that a direct call to a controller method
doesn't auto-render the template ?

This kind of falls along the other conversation I was trying to have.
Couldn't you then make a call to a underscored method? So, you
couldn't call /controller/_method, but you could do
$this->controller->_method()??
I would like to know whether the direct call or a requestAction is the
"correct"
in some instances I employ the uses attribute of a controller to
access other models so i don't have to use the requestAction method.
for example, on my dashboard of the admin area I list a few totals:
e.g.
total users: 100
total users in last month: 35
total images on system: 32
total space on
Well,
U can also make use of requestAction in the layout, in components and I
guess in elements too.

In response to my own first question, i am assuming that i am correct
as i would have to call the requestAction for each block for each page
unless they occure everywhere in which case i could use beforeRender()

Hi
I think requestAction is made for that.
To avoid a method to be accessed, just use "_" as prefix e.g :
function _blabla(){
//blabla
}
Are u american ? Isn't your lastname difficult to live with there?

Im still in the process of wrapping my head around the MVC. I understand
the roles of each of the elements. What i am coming across that i cant
seem to figure out is how to have multiple elements work on 1 page.
Example: Myspace (i know, but good example of what im talking about).
