Re: Ajax reload of an element from a call within the element itself

Arrrghhh.
Ok my whole understanding was wrong, thanks Jeff !
I thought Cake could by himself refresh the element content in the
view.

I didn't get that the function in the controller would only return the
content, and that I had to update/refresh the element with the result.

Thanks !
