Planet CakePHP

Ok, download CakePHP 1.2 and create a basic website with some scaffolding or something. Include Prototype or jQuery and think about a part of your page you want to replace with the result of an Ajax request. Suppose you have a scaffolded list of customers. When you press the View link, Cake redirects you to customers/view/123. You can catch the link and call some Javascript to load the result of customers/view/123 in a div on your index page. Quite easy, but you now see your header twice. Not cool. Hmmm.... Try to load the component RequestHandler. Hey Cool! My layout is gone and my Ajax function does what I want.Actually, your layout is not gone, but Cake detects that the view was loaded from an Xmlhttprequest (ajax) and uses the Ajax layout instead of the default.Try this at home!
