Yii: render the login.php view into another view's Div tag

so im working on a page to learn Yii. this is it: http://devcave.freeiz.com

What i am trying to do is, when i click on login, a div is sliding down, where the login.php form should be. The question is how do i render that into the main.php’s div tag.

i tryed $this->renderPartial(’//site/login’,array(‘model’=>$model)); , but i get Undefined variable: model error. I read trough the Understanding yii view rendering flow but it seems i didnt quit get the point.

Any suggestions please?

I did this:

main.php

$this->renderPartial(‘site/login’,array(‘model’=>new LoginForm));

and this in login.php

$form=$this->beginWidget(‘CActiveForm’, array(

// ...


'action

and it works
