I use PHPTAL quite a lot (believe it or not, I like XML ;) and I wanted to use it in Cake so I wrote a little PhptalView class extending Cake's View. Component Class: <?php <?php /** * Methods for displaying presentation data using PHPTAL (http://phptal.motion-twin.com/) * * * PHP 5 ONLY !!!! * * Copyright (c) 2007, Daniel Kvasni�?ka * * Licensed under The MIT License * Redist
