Hello Philip, Fabien,

what you describe is the call to a full subcontroller like shown in the
result browser.

"The expandable controller" is not a call to a subcontroller, but simply
adding more action functions for the same controller.


<?php
  2 if (!defined ('TYPO3_MODE'))  die ('Access denied.');

...

   Register the expanding controller class tx_archive_filesController 
   for the class tx_archive_controller:

  6
  7 if (TYPO3_MODE == 'FE'){
  8   $TYPO3_CONF_VARS['CONTROLLERS']['tx_archive_controller'
['tx_archive_filesController'] = 1;
  9

...

   Include class manually because autoinclusion is still missing:
 
 15   require_once(t3lib_extMgm::extPath('div') . 'class.tx_div.php');
 16
 17   tx_div::load('tx_lib_controller');
 18   tx_div::load('tx_archive_controller');
 19   tx_div::load('tx_archive_filesController');

...
