Re: [fw-mvc] Knowing if an action is being called by the actionstack or _forward

This would be nice functionality to have if it's not already in there. I've looked for this too and couldn't find it, and ended doing what you did (adding params).

Would it help if _forward, the action stack, and the action view helper automatically added a param to the request?

You could check the request uri. Might be a better way though...

Hello,
 I have been building an application that I'm working on by using the action stack and the controller action _forward function so that i can reuse actions whereever they are required. My question is, is it possible to determine if an action is called by the forwarder or action stack rather than directly by a page request?
 I have some actions that will change depending on the circumstance and at the moment I pass a param when i call another action, but it just feels messy.
  Regards,
Tim
