You know, I didn't event think about the fact you need some actual data!

Instead of calling redirect(), try setAction(). The former sends
headers to the client to get it to make a new request to the
redirected controller/action, while the latter simply redirects within
the same request.

$this->News->saveField('active', 1 - $news['News']['active']);
$this->setAction('admin_index');

Then, put the following inside your admin_index action:

if ($this->RequestHandler->isAjax())
{
Configure::write('debug', 0);
$this->layout = 'ajax';
}

That *should* work. AFAIK, the fact you're checking that inside a new
action shouldn't make a difference because it's technically the same
request.
