Re: CakePHP Constants in a view

You can place constants in bootstrap.php, though I usually create a site-specific config file and include it within bootstrap.php

In config file:
Configure::write('MyConstant', 'My Value');

In view file:

Configure::read('MyConstant'); // My Value

I have read many comments on bootstrap, use it/dont us it?? so where would be best and cleanest to use it?
