[TYPO3-dev] ExtBase and AJAX: "cannot find requested view"

[Mark Howells-Mead]

For those who have been following along, the problem could be resolved quickly and efficiently by using the pageType method described (in German) at http://t3-developer.com/extbase-fluid/extensions-erweitern/ajax-in-extensions/ajaxcalls-mit-pagetype/ by Klaus.

Simply put: if you need to create a view using a Fluid template, use the pageType method. If you want to send a response using return directly in the Controller Action function, then use the Dispatcher method.
