CakePHP: Custom Function in bootstrap that uses $ajax->link not working
- by nekko
Hello I have two questions:
(1) Is it best practice to create global custom functions in the bootstrap file? Is there a better place to store them?
(2) I am unable use the following line of code in my custom function located in my bootstrap.php file:
$url = $ajax->link ( 'Delete', array ('controller' => 'events', 'action' => 'delete', 22 ), array ('update' => 'event' ), 'Do you want to delete this event?' );
echo $url;
I receive the following error:
Notice (8): Undefined variable: ajax [APP\config\bootstrap.php, line 271]
Code
}
function testAjax () {
$url = $ajax->link ( 'Delete', array ('controller' => 'events', 'action' => 'delete', 22 ), array ('update' => 'event' ), 'Do you want to delete this event?' );
testAjax - APP\config\bootstrap.php, line 271
include - APP\views\event\queue.ctp, line 19
View::_render() - CORE\cake\libs\view\view.php, line 649
View::render() - CORE\cake\libs\view\view.php, line 372
Controller::render() - CORE\cake\libs\controller\controller.php, line 766
Dispatcher::_invoke() - CORE\cake\dispatcher.php, line 211
Dispatcher::dispatch() - CORE\cake\dispatcher.php, line 181
[main] - APP\webroot\index.php, line 91
However it works as intended if I place that same code in my view:
<a onclick=" event.returnValue = false; return false;" id="link1656170149" href="/shout/events/delete/22">Delete</a>
Please help :)
Thanks in advance!!
