    /**
    * Renders the content that will be returned to the browser as the Response body.
    * 
    * === Rendering an action
    * 
    * Action rendering is the most common form and the type used automatically by 
    * Action Controller when nothing else is specified. By default, actions are 
    * rendered within the current layout (if one exists).
    * 
    * * Renders the template for the action "goal" within the current controller
    *   
    *       $this->render(array('action'=>'goal'));
    * 
    * * Renders the template for the action "short_goal" within the current controller,
    *   but without the current active layout
    *   
    *       $this->render(array('action'=>'short_goal','layout'=>false));
    * 
    * * Renders the template for the action "long_goal" within the current controller,
    *   but with a custom layout
    *   
    *       $this->render(array('action'=>'long_goal','layout'=>'spectacular'));
    * 
    * === Rendering partials
    * 
    * Partial rendering is most commonly used together with Ajax calls that only update 
    * one or a few elements on a page without reloading. Rendering of partials from 
    * the controller makes it possible to use the same partial template in
    * both the full-page rendering (by calling it from within the template) and when 
    * sub-page updates happen (from the controller action responding to Ajax calls). 
    * By default, the current layout is not used.
    * 
    * * Renders the partial located at app/views/controller/_win.tpl
    * 
    *       $this->render(array('partial'=>'win'));
    * 
    * * Renders the partial with a status code of 500 (internal error)
    * 
    *       $this->render(array('partial'=>'broken','status'=>500));
    * 
    * * Renders the same partial but also makes a local variable available to it
    *   
    *       $this->render(array('partial' => 'win', 'locals' => array('name'=>'david')));
    * 
    * * Renders a collection of the same partial by making each element of $wins available through 
    *   the local variable "win" as it builds the complete Response
    * 
    *       $this->render(array('partial'=>'win','collection'=>$wins));
    * 
    * * Renders the same collection of partials, but also renders the win_divider partial in between
    *   each win partial.
    *   
    *       $this->render(array('partial'=>'win','collection'=>$wins,'spacer_template'=>'win_divider'));
    * 
    * === Rendering a template
    * 
    * Template rendering works just like action rendering except that it takes a 
    * path relative to the template root. 
    * The current layout is automatically applied.
    * 
    * * Renders the template located in app/views/weblog/show.tpl
    *   $this->render(array('template'=>'weblog/show'));
    * 
    * === Rendering a file
    * 
    * File rendering works just like action rendering except that it takes a 
    * filesystem path. By default, the path is assumed to be absolute, and the 
    * current layout is not applied.
    * 
    * * Renders the template located at the absolute filesystem path
    *   $this->render(array('file'=>'/path/to/some/template.tpl'));
    *   $this->render(array('file'=>'c:/path/to/some/template.tpl'));
    * 
    * * Renders a template within the current layout, and with a 404 status code
    *   $this->render(array('file' => '/path/to/some/template.tpl', 'layout' => true, 'status' => 404));
    *   $this->render(array('file' => 'c:/path/to/some/template.tpl', 'layout' => true, 'status' => 404));
    * 
    * * Renders a template relative to the template root and chooses the proper file extension
    *   $this->render(array('file' => 'some/template', 'use_full_path' => true));
    * 
    * 
    * === Rendering text
    * 
    * Rendering of text is usually used for tests or for rendering prepared content, 
    * such as a cache. By default, text
    * rendering is not done within the active layout.
    * 
    * * Renders the clear text "hello world" with status code 200
    *   $this->render(array('text' => 'hello world!'));
    * 
    * * Renders the clear text "Explosion!"  with status code 500
    *   $this->render(array('text' => "Explosion!", 'status' => 500 ));
    * 
    * * Renders the clear text "Hi there!" within the current active layout (if one exists)
    *   $this->render(array('text' => "Explosion!", 'layout' => true));
    * 
    * * Renders the clear text "Hi there!" within the layout 
    * * placed in "app/views/layouts/special.tpl"
    *   $this->render(array('text' => "Explosion!", 'layout => "special"));
    * 
    * 
    * === Rendering an inline template
    * 
    * Rendering of an inline template works as a cross between text and action 
    * rendering where the source for the template
    * is supplied inline, like text, but its evaled by PHP, like action. By default, 
    * PHP is used for rendering and the current layout is not used.
    * 
    * * Renders "hello, hello, hello, again"
    *   $this->render(array('inline' => "<?php echo str_repeat('hello, ', 3).'again'?>" ));
    * 
    * * Renders "hello david"
    *   $this->render(array('inline' => "<?php echo  'hello ' . $name ?>", 'locals' => array('name' => 'david')));
    * 
    * 
    * === Rendering nothing
    * 
    * Rendering nothing is often convenient in combination with Ajax calls that 
    * perform their effect client-side or
    * when you just want to communicate a status code. Due to a bug in Safari, nothing 
    * actually means a single space.
    * 
    * * Renders an empty Response with status code 200
    *   $this->render(array('nothing' => true));

    }


    /**
    * Returns a URL that has been rewritten according to the options array and the defined Routes. 
    * (For doing a complete redirect, use redirectTo).
    * 
    * <tt>$this->UrlFor</tt> is used to:
    * 
    * All keys given to $this->UrlFor are forwarded to the Route module, save for the following:
    * * <tt>anchor</tt> -- specifies the anchor name to be appended to the path. For example, 
    *   <tt>$this->UrlFor(array('controller' => 'posts', 'action' => 'show', 'id' => 10, 'anchor' => 'comments'</tt> 
    *   will produce "/posts/show/10#comments".
    * * <tt>only_path</tt> --  if true, returns the absolute URL (omitting the protocol, host name, and port)
    * * <tt>trailing_slash</tt> --  if true, adds a trailing slash, as in "/archive/2005/". Note that this
    *   is currently not recommended since it breaks caching.
    * * <tt>host</tt> -- overrides the default (current) host if provided
    * * <tt>protocol</tt> -- overrides the default (current) protocol if provided
    * 
    * The URL is generated from the remaining keys in the array. A URL contains two key parts: the <base> and a query string.
    * Routes composes a query string as the key/value pairs not included in the <base>.
    * 
    * The default Routes setup supports a typical Akelos Framework path of "controller/action/id" 
    * where action and id are optional, with
    * action defaulting to 'index' when not given. Here are some typical $this->UrlFor statements 
    * and their corresponding URLs:
    * 
    *   $this->UrlFor(array('controller'=>'posts','action'=>'recent')); //  'proto://host.com/posts/recent'
    *   $this->UrlFor(array('controller'=>'posts','action'=>'index')); // 'proto://host.com/posts'
    *   $this->UrlFor(array('controller'=>'posts','action'=>'show','id'=>10)); // 'proto://host.com/posts/show/10'
    * 
    * When generating a new URL, missing values may be filled in from the current 
    * Request's parameters. For example,
    * <tt>$this->UrlFor(array('action'=>'some_action'));</tt> will retain the current controller, 
    * as expected. This behavior extends to other parameters, including <tt>controller</tt>, 
    * <tt>id</tt>, and any other parameters that are placed into a Route's path.
    * 
    * The URL helpers such as <tt>$this->UrlFor</tt> have a limited form of memory: 
    * when generating a new URL, they can look for missing values in the current Request's parameters. 
    * Routes attempts to guess when a value should and should not be
    * taken from the defaults. There are a few simple rules on how this is performed:
    * 
    * * If the controller name begins with a slash, no defaults are used: <tt>$this->UrlFor(array('controller'=>'/home'));</tt>
    * * If the controller changes, the action will default to index unless provided
    * 
    * The final rule is applied while the URL is being generated and is best illustrated by an example. Let us consider the
    * route given by <tt>map->connect('people/:last/:first/:action', array('action' => 'bio', 'controller' => 'people'))</tt>.
    * 
    * Suppose that the current URL is "people/hh/david/contacts". Let's consider a few 
    * different cases of URLs which are generated from this page.
    * 
    * * <tt>$this->UrlFor(array('action'=>'bio'));</tt> -- During the generation of this URL, 
    * default values will be used for the first and
    * last components, and the action shall change. The generated URL will be, "people/hh/david/bio".
    * * <tt>$this->UrlFor(array('first'=>'davids-little-brother'));</tt> This 
    * generates the URL 'people/hh/davids-little-brother' -- note
    *   that this URL leaves out the assumed action of 'bio'.
    * 
    * However, you might ask why the action from the current Request, 'contacts', isn't 
    * carried over into the new URL. The answer has to do with the order in which 
    * the parameters appear in the generated path. In a nutshell, since the
    * value that appears in the slot for <tt>first</tt> is not equal to default value 
    * for <tt>first</tt> we stop using defaults. On it's own, this rule can account 
    * for much of the typical Akelos Framework URL behavior.
    * 
    * Although a convienence, defaults can occasionaly get in your way. In some cases 
    * a default persists longer than desired.
    * The default may be cleared by adding <tt>'name' => null</tt> to <tt>$this->UrlFor</tt>'s options.
    * This is often required when writing form helpers, since the defaults in play 
    * may vary greatly depending upon where the helper is used from. The following line 
    * will redirect to PostController's default action, regardless of the page it is
    * displayed on:
    * 
    *   $this->UrlFor(array('controller' => 'posts', 'action' => null));
    *      
    * If you explicitly want to create a URL that's almost the same as the current URL, you can do so using the
    * overwrite_params options. Say for your posts you have different views for showing and printing them.
    * Then, in the show view, you get the URL for the print view like this
    * 
    *   $this->UrlFor(array('overwrite_params' => array('action' => 'print')));
    * 
    * This takes the current URL as is and only exchanges the action. In contrast, 
    * <tt>$this->UrlFor(array('action'=>'print'));</tt>
    * would have slashed-off the path components after the changed action.

    /**
    * Layouts reverse the common pattern of including shared headers and footers in many templates 
    * to isolate changes in repeated setups. The inclusion pattern has pages that look like this:
    *
    *   <?php echo  $controller->render('shared/header') ?>
    *   Hello World
    *   <?php echo  $controller->render('shared/footer') ?>
    *
    * This approach is a decent way of keeping common structures isolated from the 
    * changing content, but it's verbose and if( you ever want to change the structure 
    * of these two includes, you'll have to change all the templates.
    *
    * With layouts, you can flip it around and have the common structure know where 
    * to insert changing content. This means that the header and footer are only 
    * mentioned in one place, like this:
    *
    *   <!-- The header part of this layout -->
    *   <?php echo  $content_for_layout ?>
    *   <!-- The footer part of this layout -->
    *
    * And then you have content pages that look like this:
    *
    *    hello world
    *
    * Not a word about common structures. At rendering time, the content page is 
    * computed and then inserted in the layout, 
    * like this:
    *
    *   <!-- The header part of this layout -->
    *   hello world
    *   <!-- The footer part of this layout -->
    *
    * == Accessing shared variables
    *
    * Layouts have access to variables specified in the content pages and vice versa. 
    * This allows you to have layouts with references that won't materialize before 
    * rendering time:
    *
    *   <h1><?php echo  $page_title ?></h1>
    *   <?php echo  $content_for_layout ?>
    *
    * ...and content pages that fulfill these references _at_ rendering time:
    *
    *    <?php $page_title = 'Welcome'; ?>
    *    Off-world colonies offers you a chance to start a new life
    *
    * The result after rendering is:
    *
    *   <h1>Welcome</h1>
    *   Off-world colonies offers you a chance to start a new life
    *
    * == Automatic layout assignment
    *
    * If there is a template in <tt>app/views/layouts/</tt> with the same name as 
    * the current controller then it will be automatically
    * set as that controller's layout unless explicitly told otherwise. Say you have 
    * a WeblogController, for example. If a template named <tt>app/views/layouts/weblog.tpl</tt> 
    * exists then it will be automatically set as the layout for your WeblogController. 
    * You can create a layout with the name <tt>application.tpl</tt> 
    * and this will be set as the default controller if there is no layout with 
    * the same name as the current controller and there is no layout explicitly 
    * assigned on the +layout+ attribute. Setting a layout explicitly will always 
    * override the automatic behaviour
    * for the controller where the layout is set. Explicitly setting the layout 
    * in a parent class, though, will not override the 
    * child class's layout assignement if the child class has a layout with the same name. 
    *
    * == Inheritance for layouts
    *
    * Layouts are shared downwards in the inheritance hierarchy, but not upwards. Examples:
    *
    *   class BankController extends AkActionController
    *   {
    *     var $layout = 'bank_standard';
    *   }
    *
    *   class InformationController extends BankController
    *   {
    *   }
    *
    *   class VaultController extends BankController
    *   {
    *      var $layout  = 'access_level_layout';
    *   }
    *
    *   class EmployeeController extends BankController
    *   {
    *       var $layout = null;
    *   }
    *
    * The InformationController uses 'bank_standard' inherited from the BankController, the VaultController 
    * and picks the layout 'access_level_layout', and the EmployeeController doesn't want to use a layout at all.
    *
    * == Types of layouts
    *
    * Layouts are basically just regular templates, but the name of this template needs not be specified statically. Sometimes
    * you want to alternate layouts depending on runtime information, such as whether someone is logged in or not. This can
    * be done either by an inline method.
    *
    * The method reference is the preferred approach to variable layouts and is used like this:
    *
    *   class WeblogController extends AkActionController
    *   {
    *       function __construct()
    *       {
    *           $this->setLayout(array(&$this, '_writersAndReaders'));
    *       }
    *
    *       function index()
    *       {
    *           // fetching posts
    *       }
    * 
    *       function _writersAndReaders()
    *       {
    *           return is_logged_in() ? 'writer_layout' : 'reader_layout';
    *       }
    *   }
    *
    * Now when a new request for the index action is processed, the layout will vary depending on whether the person accessing 
    * is logged in or not.
    *
    * The most common way of specifying a layout is still just as a plain template name:
    *
    *   class WeblogController extends AkActionController
    *   {
    *      var $layout = 'weblog_standard';
    *   }
    *
    * If no directory is specified for the template name, the template will by default by looked for in +app/views/layouts/+.
    *
    * == Conditional layouts
    *
    * If you have a layout that by default is applied to all the actions of a controller, you still have the option of rendering
    * a given action or set of actions without a layout, or restricting a layout to only a single action or a set of actions. The 
    * <tt>only</tt> and <tt>except</tt> options can be passed to the layout call. For example:
    *
    *   class WeblogController extends AkActionController
    *   {
    *       function __construct()
    *       {
    *           $this->setLayout('weblog_standard', array('except' => 'rss'));
    *       }
    * 
    *     // ...
    *
    *   }
    *
    * This will assign 'weblog_standard' as the WeblogController's layout  except for the +rss+ action, which will not wrap a layout 
    * around the rendered view.
    *
    * Both the <tt>only</tt> and <tt>except</tt> condition can accept an arbitrary number of method names, so 
    * <tt>'except' => array('rss', 'text_only')</tt> is valid, as is <tt>'except' => 'rss'</tt>.
    *
    * == Using a different layout in the action render call
    * 
    * If most of your actions use the same layout, it makes perfect sense to define a controller-wide layout as described above.
    * Some times you'll have exceptions, though, where one action wants to use a different layout than the rest of the controller.
    * This is possible using the <tt>render</tt> method. It's just a bit more manual work as you'll have to supply fully
    * qualified template and layout names as this example shows:
    *
    *   class WeblogController extends AkActionController
    *   {
    *       function help()
    *       {
    *           $this->render(array('action'=>'help/index','layout'=>'help'));
    *       }
    *   }
    */

    /**
    * If a layout is specified, all actions rendered through render and render_action will have their result assigned 
    * to <tt>$this->content_for_layout</tt>, which can then be used by the layout to insert their contents with
    * <tt><?php echo  $$this->content_for_layout ?></tt>. This layout can itself depend on instance variables assigned during action
    * performance and have access to them as any normal template would.
    */

        $this->_addLayoutConditions($conditions);
        $this->layout = $template_name;

    /**
    * Filters enable controllers to run shared pre and post processing code for its actions. These filters can be used to do 
    * authentication, caching, or auditing before the intended action is performed. Or to do localization or output 
    * compression after the action has been performed.
    * 
    * Filters have access to the request, response, and all the instance variables set by other filters in the chain
    * or by the action (in the case of after filters). Additionally, it's possible for a pre-processing <tt>beforeFilter</tt>
    * to halt the processing before the intended action is processed by returning false or performing a redirect or render. 
    * This is especially useful for filters like authentication where you're not interested in allowing the action to be 
    * performed if the proper credentials are not in order.
    * 
    * == Filter inheritance
    * 
    * Controller inheritance hierarchies share filters downwards, but subclasses can also add new filters without
    * affecting the superclass. For example:
    * 
    *   class BankController extends AkActionController 
    *   {
    *       function __construct()
    *       {
    *           $this->beforeFilter('_audit');
    *       }
    *       
    *       function _audit(&$controller)
    *       {
    *           // record the action and parameters in an audit log  
    *       }
    *   }
    * 
    *   class VaultController extends BankController 
    *   {
    *       function __construct()
    *       {
    *           $this->beforeFilter('_verifyCredentials');
    *       }
    *       
    *       function _verifyCredentials(&$controller)
    *       {
    *           // make sure the user is allowed into the vault
    *       }
    *   }
    * 
    * Now any actions performed on the BankController will have the audit method called before. On the VaultController,
    * first the audit method is called, then the _verifyCredentials method. If the _audit method returns false, then 
    * _verifyCredentials and the intended action are never called.
    * 
    * == Filter types
    * 
    * A filter can take one of three forms: method reference, external class, or inline method. The first
    * is the most common and works by referencing a method somewhere in the inheritance hierarchy of
    * the controller by use of a method name. In the bank example above, both BankController and VaultController use this form.
    * 
    * Using an external class makes for more easily reused generic filters, such as output compression. External filter classes
    * are implemented by having a static +filter+ method on any class and then passing this class to the filter method. Example:
    * 
    *   class OutputCompressionFilter
    *   {
    *       function filter(&$controller)
    *       {
    *           $controller->response->body = compress($controller->response->body);
    *       }
    *   }
    * 
    *   class NewspaperController extends AkActionController 
    *   {
    *       function __construct()
    *       {
    *           $this->afterFilter(new OutputCompressionFilter());
    *       }
    *   }
    * 
    * The filter method is passed the controller instance and is hence granted access to all aspects of the controller and can
    * manipulate them as it sees fit.
    * 
    * 
    * == Filter chain ordering
    * 
    * Using <tt>beforeFilter</tt> and <tt>afterFilter</tt> appends the specified filters to the existing chain. That's usually
    * just fine, but some times you care more about the order in which the filters are executed. When that's the case, you
    * can use <tt>prependBeforeFilter</tt> and <tt>prependAfterFilter</tt>. Filters added by these methods will be put at the
    * beginning of their respective chain and executed before the rest. For example:
    * 
    *   class ShoppingController extends AkActionController 
    *   {
    *       function __construct()
    *       {
    *           $this->beforeFilter('verifyOpenShop');
    *       }
    *   }
    * 
    * 
    *   class CheckoutController extends AkActionController 
    *   {
    *       function __construct()
    *       {
    *           $this->prependBeforeFilter('ensureItemsInCart', 'ensureItemsInStock');
    *       }
    *   }
    * 
    * The filter chain for the CheckoutController is now <tt>ensureItemsInCart, ensureItemsInStock,</tt>
    * <tt>verifyOpenShop</tt>. So if either of the ensure filters return false, we'll never get around to see if the shop 
    * is open or not.
    * 
    * You may pass multiple filter arguments of each type.
    * 
    * == Around filters
    * 
    * In addition to the individual before and after filters, it's also possible to specify that a single object should handle
    * both the before and after call. That's especially useful when you need to keep state active between the before and after,
    * such as the example of a benchmark filter below:
    * 
    *   class WeblogController extends AkActionController 
    *   {
    *       function __construct()
    *       {
    *           $this->aroundFilter(new BenchmarkingFilter());
    *       }
    *     
    *       // Before this action is performed, BenchmarkingFilter->before($controller) is executed
    *      function index()
    *      {
    *      }
    *       // After this action has been performed, BenchmarkingFilter->after($controller) is executed
    *   }
    * 
    *   class BenchmarkingFilter
    *   {
    *       function before(&$controller)
    *       {
    *           start_timer();
    *       }
    *       
    *       function after(&$controller)
    *       {
    *           stop_timer();
    *           report_result();   
    *       }
    *   }
    * 
    * == Filter chain skipping
    * 
    * Some times its convenient to specify a filter chain in a superclass that'll hold true for the majority of the 
    * subclasses, but not necessarily all of them. The subclasses that behave in exception can then specify which filters
    * they would like to be relieved of. Examples
    * 
    *   class ApplicationController extends AkActionController 
    *   {
    *       function __construct()
    *       {
    *           $this->beforeFilter('authenticate');
    *       }
    *   }
    * 
    *   class WeblogController extends ApplicationController
    *   {
    *       // will run the authenticate filter
    *   }
    * 
    *   class SignupController extends AkActionController 
    *   {
    *       function __construct()
    *       {
    *           $this->skipBeforeFilter('authenticate');
    *       }
    *       // will not run the authenticate filter
    *   }
    * 
    * == Filter conditions
    * 
    * Filters can be limited to run for only specific actions. This can be expressed either by listing the actions to
    * exclude or the actions to include when executing the filter. Available conditions are +only+ or +except+, both 
    * of which accept an arbitrary number of method references. For example:
    * 
    *   class Journal extends AkActionController 
    *   {
    *       function __construct()
    *       {   // only require authentication if the current action is edit or delete
    *           $this->beforeFilter(array('_authorize'=>array('only'=>array('edit','delete')));
    *       }
    *       
    *       function _authorize(&$controller)
    *       {
    *         // redirect to login unless authenticated
    *       }
    *   }

    /**
    * The flash provides a way to pass temporary objects between actions. Anything you place in the flash will be exposed

    * the flash to its template. Actually, that exposure is automatically done. Example:
    *
    *   class WeblogController extends ActionController
    *   {
    *       function create()
    *       {

    *
    *   display.tpl
    *     <?php if($flash['notice']) : ?><div class='notice'><?php echo $flash['notice'] ?></div><?php endif; ?>
    *
    * This example just places a string in the flash, but you can put any object in there. And of course, you can put as many
    * as you like at a time too. Just remember: They'll be gone by the time the next action has been performed.
    *
    * ==flash_now
    * 
    * Sets a flash that will not be available to the next action, only to the current.
    *
    *     $this->flash_now['message] = 'Hello current action';
    * 
    * This method enables you to use the flash as a central messaging system in your app.
    * When you need to pass an object to the next action, you use the standard flash assign (<tt>[]=</tt>).
    * When you need to pass an object to the current action, you use <tt>now</tt>, and your object will
    * vanish when the current action is done.

    /**
    * === Pagination for Active Record collections
    *
    * The Pagination module aids in the process of paging large collections of
    * Active Record objects. It offers macro-style automatic fetching of your
    * model for multiple views, or explicit fetching for single actions. And if
    * the magic isn't flexible enough for your needs, you can create your own
    * paginators with a minimal amount of code.
    *
    * The Pagination module can handle as much or as little as you wish. In the
    * controller, have it automatically query your model for pagination; or,
    * if you prefer, create Paginator objects yourself
    *
    * Pagination is included automatically for all controllers.

    * ==== Automatic pagination for every action in a controller
    *
    *   class PersonController extends ApplicationController
    *   {
    *       var $model = 'person';
    *       var $paginate = array('people'=>array('order' => 'last_name, first_name',
    *              'per_page' => 20));
    *   }
    *
    * Each action in this controller now has access to a <tt>$this->people</tt>
    * instance variable, which is an ordered collection of model objects for the
    * current page (at most 20, sorted by last name and first name), and a 
    * <tt>$this->person_pages</tt> Paginator instance. The current page is determined
    * by the <tt>$params['page']</tt> variable.
    *
    * ==== Pagination for a single action
    *
    *   function show_all()
    *   {
    *       list($this->person_pages, $this->people) =
    *       $this->paginate('people', array('order' => 'last_name, first_name'));
    *   }
    *
    * Like the previous example, but explicitly creates <tt>$this->person_pages</tt>
    * and <tt>$this->people</tt> for a single action, and uses the default of 10 items
    * per page.
    *
    * ==== Custom/"classic" pagination 
    *
    *   function list()
    *   {
    *       $this->person_pages = new AkPaginator(&$this, $Person->count(), 10, $params['page']);
    *       $this->people = $this->Person->find('all', array(
    *                       'order'=> 'last_name, first_name', 
    *                       'limit' =>  $this->person_pages->items_per_page,
    *                       'offset' =>  $this->person_pages->getOffset()));
    *   }
    * 
    * Explicitly creates the paginator from the previous example and uses 
    * AkPaginator::toSql to retrieve <tt>$this->people</tt> from the model.
