Hi,

I have a class where I want to be able to get an instance of it's parent's controller class.

In the class' controller, I tried:

$myParent = $this->parent();

but it returns the model. Is there anything similar to $this->parent_controller()? I searched the forums but couldn't find anything or didn't use the correct keywords.

thanks!
Steve

Any parent function you may need, you can call with:

parent::functionNameHere();

Just like you do in init:

parent::init();

thanks ampedup, but I should've been more specific in that I was trying to get the parent object with respect to the folder tree and not the class that it extends from.
