Creating a new task 05 Dec 2013 03:02 #11742

I can't seem to create new tasks for my controllers. I just end up at a blank page.

I want to add the task
upload
to a controller class which will handle ajax uploading of images. I created a stub to test:
public function upload() {
		
		echo "Hello world!";
		exit;
		
	}

When I navigate to: index.php?option=com_mycomponent&task=mycontroller.upload - I get a blank page. Actually I can't get anywhere using task in the url. mycontroller.add, mycontroller.edit, etc - all land at a page with no data. (Completely empty, there is no text or html at all).

I am testing on Joomla 2.5 and Joomla 3.0.

I was able to do this in past versions of cook.

Please help me fix this! Thank you.

Hi,
I got working something similar. The "upload" function I placed in controller (the controller placed in root of your component, not in controllers folder)

Should be fixed now. (2.7)

Note : You must call
controller.task
Coding is now a piece of cake

I jumped and started to work on a demo component... but 2 days later this demo component became the real component. I just showed today the end result to my customer and he turned to me and said... "this is more than I expected"... All of this is because Cook did cut about 70% of my work and provided me more ways to improve the usability of the component. The end result was 17 tables all related between than to generate a full dashboard for the travel agents. Thanks for Cook developers for such great tool. This component would not be possible to be done at short time with all the features in it
