I have a controller named 'Student' with two actions called 'index' and 'add'. I want to load different css files for each of the action. So far i have tried is, i have imported Html Helper, created object of it and called its css method. When i run it, it is not throwing any error, nor showing expected result. Means, it is not loading css file dynamically in my view.. How can i dynamically load css files in different views from Controller?
Code:-
<?php
App::import('Helper','Html');
class StudentController extends AppController
{
public function index()
{
// $current_controller = $this->params['controller'];
// echo $current_controller;
//$view=new View(new Controller($current_controller));
//$Html=new HtmlHelper($view);
$Html=new HtmlHelper(new View(null));
//$html=new HtmlHelper(new View());
$Html->css('cake.generics');
//echo ;
//$this->Html->css("cake.generics");
}
public function add()
{
// $current_controller = $this->params['controller'];
// echo $current_controller;
$html=new HtmlHelper(new View(null));
$html->css("mystyle.css");
}
}
you can also create a global layout file in View > Element like default_assets.ctp
after that add this file in your default layout file like,default_layout.ctp in View > Layout folder
and after access this in your controller like
public function index(){
$this->layout = "default_layout";
}
