Pagination Helper class for easy generation of pagination links.
PaginationHelper encloses all methods needed when working with pagination.
__construct( View $View , array $settings array() )
Constructor for the helper. Sets up the helper that is used for creating 'AJAX' links.
Use public $helpers = array('Paginator' => array('ajax' => 'CustomHelper'));
to set a custom Helper or choose a non JsHelper Helper. If you want to use a specific library with JsHelper declare JsHelper and its adapter before including PaginatorHelper in your helpers array.
The chosen custom helper must implement a link()
method.

requestAction( string|array $url , array $extra array() )
Calls a controller's method from any location. Can be used to connect controllers together or tie plugins into a main application. requestAction can be used to return rendered views or fetch the return value from controller actions.
Under the hood this method uses Router::reverse() to convert the $url parameter into a string URL. You should use URL formats that are compatible with Router::reverse()
POST and GET data can be simulated in requestAction. Use $extra['url']
for GET data. The $extra['data']
parameter allows POST data simulation.
