How to use helpers in CakePHP views?

In CakePHP, helpers are used in views to perform various tasks such as generating HTML tags, creating forms, and working with text. To use helpers in CakePHP views, follow these steps:

1. Load the helper using the $helpers property of your controller. For example, to load the FormHelper and HtmlHelper, add the following code to your controller:

class PostsController extends AppController { public $helpers = array('Form', 'Html'); }

1. Access the helper methods in your view using the $this->HelperName syntax. For example, to use the FormHelper's input() method to create a form input field, add the following code to your view:

echo $this->Form->input('title');

1. Pass options to the helper methods as an array parameter. For example, to add a CSS class to the input field, add the following code to your view:

echo $this->Form->input('title', array('class' => 'form-control'));

That's it! You can use helpers in your CakePHP views to simplify your code and speed up development.
