Add dismiss control to session-flash() output in CakePHP

Question

In a CakePHP 1.2 app, I'm using <?php $session->flash();?> to output messages like "Record edited". It's working great. However, I want to add a link called "Dismiss" that will fade out the message. I know how to construct the link, but I don't know how to insert into the output of the flass message. The flash message wraps itself in a DIV tag. I want to insert my dismiss code into that div, but I don't know how.

Answer 1

You want to use the setflash function. If you pass setflash an empty string for $default it will not wrap your message in a div and just store it as is. This way you can display any markup you want or as Justin posted you can use another view page for your message so you don't mix your view and controllers.
