How to implement a sidebar in Zend Framework

Question

How do I implement a sidebar in Zend Framework? I know that I can use a placeholder or something similar in Zend_layout, but how do I automatically generate the code for the sid

Answer 1

If you are using Zend_Layout, just add the sidebar with the Action viewhelper as Rufinus said.

in your layout script:

action('action', 'controller', 'module', array('optionalparams'=>1)); ?>


layout()->content; ?>

This should meet the requirements posted in your question.
