是否厌倦了用xml文件来做Magento的页面布局，是的话来试试下面这种方式，把布局代码写到controller 里面
public function mycoolAction()
{
/* ... Some code ...*/
$update = $this->getLayout()->getUpdate();
/* ... Some code ...*/
$this->addActionLayoutHandles();
/* ... Some code ...*/
$this->loadLayoutUpdates();
/* ... Some code ...*/
/* My stuff, add pure XML like you do from XML layout files <img src="http://inchoo.net/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif" mce_src="http://inchoo.net/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" class="wp-smiley"> */
$update->addUpdate('
<reference name="head">
<action method="addJs"><mce:script type="text/javascript"><!--
varien/product.js
// --></mce:script></action>
<action method="addItem"><type>js_css</type><name>calendar/calendar-win2k-1.css</name><params /><!--<if/><condition>can_load_calendar_js</condition>--></action>
<action method="addItem"><type>js</type><name>calendar/calendar.js</name><!--<params/><if /><condition>can_load_calendar_js</condition>--></action>
<action method="addItem"><type>js</type><name>calendar/calendar-setup.js</name><!--<params/><if /><condition>can_load_calendar_js</condition>--></action>
<action method="addItem"><type>skin_js</type><name>js/bundle.js</name></action>
</reference>
');
/* ... Some code ...*/
$this->generateLayoutXml()->generateLayoutBlocks();
/* ... Some code ...*/
$this->renderLayout();
}
这样你也许就可以少新建一些xml文件
当然，这里还是推荐把布局写在xml文件里，上面这种方式只是告诉你Magento还有另一种方式来实现相同的功能
