I'm not sure I'm following all that, but a couple of points:
As you have the ability to create the virtualhost config, you should
disable .htaccess and place the mod_rewrite stuff in the VHost config.
This will speed up requests. Set AllowOverride to None, and place
this:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /~Alejandro/Alvaro/
RewriteRule ^$ app/webroot/ [L]
RewriteRule (.*) app/webroot/$1 [L]
</IfModule>
... inside the Directory block.
Next, you have DocumentRoot "/Users/Alejandro/Sites/" but your
mod_rewrite rule points to "/~Alejandro/Alvaro/". I've never dealt
with setting up UserDir for Cake, so I'm not sure what to say about
this. But it looks wrong to me.
The other thing is that you're importing HtmlHelper inside your
controller and creating the img tag there. This is unnecessary. You'd
be better off creating a banner.ctp element. In the controller action:
$this->set('banner_img', 'ubicacion.jpg');
In the layout:
$this->element('banner');
app/views/elements/banner.ctp:
$html->image('img/banners/'.$banner_img, array('class'=>'banner',
'title'=>"Foo"));
You probably don't really need the 'class'=>'banner', either, as you
could wrap the img tag with <div id="banner"></div> and refer to it in
your stylesheet as #banner img. That's how I'd do it, anyway.
