Issue
I am getting my foot wet with CakePHP and wondering what is better to load views. I tried searching but could not find satisfying answer for this small question. If I have to load header and footer along with content, what should be better approach :
1) Using $this->fetch("header") in view.ctp
or 2) I don't know how is it possible but, loading different views one after another from controller like we do in CodeIgniter ($this->load->view("header")).
Solution
As mentioned by user2076809, you'll probably want to use elements for this purpose, to keep things DRY: book.cakephp.org/2.0/en/views.html#elements.
Be aware though that Cake uses layouts (http://book.cakephp.org/2.0/en/views.html#layouts) to handle the header and footer by default, so take a look at app/View/Layouts/default.ctp and make sure you don't have redundant code there (for example, it has the <head> tag with all the default CSS includes).
