    How do I change the content type of a view?

    How do I change the content type of a view? I have one that is json-formatted and needs to be read by a flash app and so I want the content type to at least be text/plain, not text/html

    You will want to create a new layout file in your application, and name it text.ctp (/app/views/layouts/text.ctp).

    In this file (text.ctp), add the following code:

    Code:
    <?php 
    header("Content-type: text/plain"); 
    echo $content_for_layout; 
?>
    Then in your controller action, which will be using this text layout, add the following to the top of that method:

    Code:
    $this->layout = 'text';
    And you should be set.

    Hope this helps!
