It means if you have a helper that needs to output HTML, you attach
the HTML helper so that it can render the HTML instead of you
concatenating.
class MyHelper {
public $helpers = array('Html');
public function introMessage($msg) {
return $this->Html->div('intro', $msg);
}
}
Instead of:
class MyHelper {
public function introMessage($msg) {
return '<div class="intro">'. $msg .'</div>';
}
}
