How to create one function to call multiple ctp file in cakephp - php

Question

I created 12 different functions and 12 different ctp files for showing the value from the database into my webpage using 12 months 12 Tabs LIKE January ... December . I want to show three top values from each month. As per cakephp we created different function for different CTP files. Like for January i created one function name January and created one CTP file name january.ctp and like for rest of 11 months i created different different functions using months name with same month wise CTP files.Just the value of the month($month) is different in each function , Is there is any way to write one function and sending variable into the 12 ctp files. How can i make my code more efficient, i added my code below
<?php

Answer 1

One thing you can do is. Get the current month and then check the current month, then send to that month ctp file according to the current month. Like this -
$month = date('M');
if ($month == 'Mar') {
$this->render('/march');
}
if ($month == 'Jan'){
$this->render('/jan');
}

Answer 2

The only difference is the value of the $month variable?
public function january() {
return $this->_month(1, 'January');
}
public function february() {
return $this->_month(2, 'February');
}
// etc...
protected function _month($month, $monthName) {
// Existing implementation of each month's function here,
// except without initializing the $month variable
$this->set(compact('results', 'votes', 'topUsers', 'userDetails', 'profile', 'month', 'monthName'));
$this->render('month');
}
And rename january.ctp to month.ctp, and you'll have the $month and $monthName variables available there now to tell you what month it's for.
