Putting the View back into MVC.

On the contrary, that line you posted is pretty much in every controller I write. Data is either created in the controller or brought into the controller from the model. It's all shoved into one associative array, usually $data. Then the controller calls one target view, passing $data.

When I discover that my view needs some information not already in $data, I change my controller to supply it.

I think you and I are in agreement. it was Pygon that suggested calling the model from a view.

@michael Wales: You don't put any dynamic code in your views? What if you have no results from the model to display, do you not have some code on your view like this?

Code:

if (!empty($results)) {
    echo $results;
} else {
    echo 'No results found.';
}
