Re: How to use two view(controller) in a page??

I'd do it with an element personally. Have the home page retrieve the data from the models in question then pass the resulting data to individual elements...

requestAction is a major performance hit, especially if you are not caching the results...and on the home page as described here you are looking at subjecting your users to 3 calls to the dispatcher (one for pages, one for news, one for users).

You *can* use requestAction and elements together, then cache the element to reduce the hit if you wish.

I am assuming you have a route that routes to a specific controller/action, e.g. pages controller, index action.

Then in you home page view View/Pages/index.ctp -

<p>Welcome to my home page.</p>

<div id="news-summary">

  <h2>News Summary></h2>

  <?php echo $this->requestAction('/news/summary'); ?>

</div>

<div id="login-form">

  <?php echo $this->requestAction('users/login'); ?>

</div>

Then, in your News controller, create and action - summary, and a view file summary.ctp.
In your Users controller create action login (which should also handle the POST request when the user logs in) and a login.ctp view file.

Then when the home page is rendered, the news summary and login forms will be displayed.

Easiest is to use requestAction() in the homepage view.

I am kind of new guy on cakePhp. So the description as below:

I hope to provide two function to users in the homepage, login and news. 

The login uses the view login and the controller loginController, and the news uses the news view and newscontroller.

The problem is how to put the two view in the home page.
