Re: A Web-app for small business

Thank you! This works great for the first, and there are a few
question on the implementation.

For the first I want to change the active state by the parameters that
are passed through my pages/display function but I don´t know where I
must change the code.

For the second I´m asking where I can find the values that are defined
in the function beforeFilter and what effect they have. I do not
understand what the function beforeFilter exactly does or where the
data is stored in my views or layout, because in debug($this) is no
variable menus either I can not debug $menus within my views or
layout.

So do I have not understood the concept, have´t I?

Thanks
