Calling an extensions method via CP url?
Development and Programming
Have tried using an action id, also tried to manipulate the C/P/M get variables, but as yet no luck :(
Anybody have any ideas?
In short I need to process a query, and return the results in an XML format, but only within the CP. And this is to all be within an extension file, I don’t really want to, unless completely necessary, separate it into a cp class.
Actions are reserved for modules, and you could probably do something with a session hook to parse the URL and trigger your extension’s method, but I don’t like the idea of bypassing like that. Perhaps a module is the more appropriate solution? Can you give some broader details about what you’re doing, and where?
Hmm, sorted it now… I hi-jacked the edit page to display the data I need if a certain get variable is present 😊
It’s sort of an ajax’y publish/edit form enhancement ;]
Details to follow i’m sure.
