Setting default variables in a controller

[eluser]Glen Swinfield[/eluser]
Just keep using $this->

for example:

Code:

function whatever{
   $this->page_vars = array(); // now assigned as available throughout the class
   //Then
   $this->page_vars['keyname'] = 'mystring';
}

Then access the values like this:

Code:

echo $this->page_vars['keyname']; //prints 'mystring';

It's all about $this when you're using objects - check the php manual for more info.
