layout library

This is a cake-like layout/view system...

The Class File: (/application/libraries/Layout.php)

<?php
if (!defined('BASEPATH')) exit('No direct script access allowed');

class Layout {

var $obj;
var $layout;

function Layout($layout)
{
    $this->obj =& get_instance();
    $this->layout = $layout;
}

function view($view, $data=null, $return=false)
{
    $data['content_for_layout'] = $this->obj->load->view($view,$data,true);
    
    if($return)
    {
        $output = $this->obj->load->view($this->layout,$data, true);
        return $output;
    }
    else
    {
        $this->obj->load->view($this->layout,$data, false);
    }
}

} ?>

In Your Controller:

Place this in the Controllers Parent Constructor:

$this->load->library(‘layout’, ‘layout_main’);

Place this in the Controllers Methods:

$this->layout->view('/shop/view_cart', $data);
