Re: CakePHP Ajax - Getting returned JSON code evaled and into variable

Well, i would say its a cakePHP question, because i am wondering how
to do it within the cakePHP framework.

if i set it up like this:

<div id="post">
</div>
<?php echo $ajax->link(
'View Post',
array( 'controller' => 'posts', 'action' => 'post' ),
array( 'complete' => 'callback()' )
);
?>

And the ajax call only returns a JSON structure, how do i either:
- Get hold of that structure inside the js function
or
- Pass it into the js function as a variable

Forinstance a callback for a Yahoo User Interface request handler
would have a function like this:

success: function(oResponse){...}

And then you fetch the returned json data out of that variable.

Is the callback function specified in the cakePHP called with any
parameters?
