Consumable object

Permalink
Hey Guys,
A client of mine asked me to create a consumable webobject of the website header and footer.
Do you think I can accomplish this in C5?
I'm basically looking to spit out the current header nav with some html wrappers on it. Any help you be great. I'm thinking a single page or tools?

I'm not quite sure what you mean by consumable.

However, look into the addHeaderItem() function that you can use in block, page and template controllers.

In a block it would be something like:
$this->controller->addHeaderItem("<script>function{blah()};</script>");
In a page controller it would be something like:
public function view(){ $this->addHeaderItem("<script>function{blah()};</script>");}
And in a template it would be something along the lines of...
$view = new View;
$view->addHeaderItem("<script>function{blah()};</script>");
Keep in mind all of this is from memory and probably not 100% accurate, but it should get you on the right path! :)

Definitely just use a file under tools, though I guess you could do a singlepage with a theme set to none and accomplish the exact same thing
