How to pass additional parametres to ClistView template

Yii 1.1 General Discussion

How can I pass additional parameter to template that is used by CListView widget(_view.php template)?

dataProvider is instance of CActiveDataProvider, so I can’t add any additional attributes in data provider(it also doesn’t have sense to add any parameter that doesn’t belong to model to data provider)


$this->widget('zii.widgets.CListView', array(

    'dataProvider'=>$dataProvider,

    'itemView'=>'/contact/_view',	

));

I want for example to pass $return_url variable to _view, so I can use it there.

Use viewData.

Thank you:) It is working.

Everything is in API docs, for those who knows to read.
