A Web-app for small business

Hello, I´ll try to make a web app for a small business owners web
presence. I found cakephp as the right tool for fast development.

Now I have wrote my model and controller classes and the views. In the
layout I would like to switch the visability of the menu by a simple
Callback function.

Am I right using the beforeFilter for passing active state to the view
as in the example I found on,
http://old.nabble.com/beforeFilter-on-app_controller-and-on-posts_controller--td16543705.html,
google?

Ex:

app_controller before filter:
function beforeFilter() {
$this->set('SiteRoot', '/bla/');
//default menu to nothing
$this->set('MenuSelected', '0');
}

post_controller before filter
function beforeFilter() {
parent::beforeFilter();
$this->set('MenuSelected', '1');
}
