Breadcrumbs And Position In Layout

Yii 1.1 General Discussion

Hi all,

I have a layout with the following structure:




<div class="breadcrumbs">

<?php $this->widget('zii.widgets.CBreadcrumbs', array(

      'links'=>$this->breadcrumbs,

      'homeLink'=>CHtml::link('Main', Yii::app()->homeUrl), 

)); ?>

</div>


<div class="content">

<?php                 

 $this->widget('myblock_widget', array());

?>

</div>

Then I have my widget which looks like this:




class MyWidget extends CWidget

{

    public function init()

    {

        // this method is called by CController::beginWidget()

    }

 

    public function run()

    {

        $this->renderContent();

    }


    protected function renderContent() {

       Yii::app()->controller->breadcrumbs = CMap::mergeArray($currentBreadcrumbs, array('Test'));

    }


}

So what I’m trying to achieve is to change the controller attribute from MyWidget. If I do a print_r(Yii::app()->controller->breadcrumbs) from the widget view I see the expected results, but I want this to happen also in the layout which still keep the value settled from the controller. If I place the breadcrumbs after “myblock_widget” all works perfect, but I need to have the breadcrumbs before that.

Any idea how to solve this?
