Message:

I have a controller with 2 actions - home and run.
home shows a form rendered with a component.
The form submit goes to action run which sends a message outside(this part works OK).
I want to render the same page as in home again in action run.
But the same rendering code that works in home - in run shows a JSON in the browser.

This is the run function of both actions:

        public function run()

{

    header('Content-type: application/json');



    $this->controller->layout = "templates.layouts.blank";



    ...Some useful business logic things



    $this->controller->render("templates.rulesrun.home", array(

        "params" => array()

    ));

}

The result in the browser looks like this:

{"page":"HTML of my page","title":"Title of my page"}

PHP version 7.2
Yii version 1.1

Thank you all.

My Answer:
> It seems like the issue might be with the `header('Content-type: application/json');` line in your `run()` function. This header is telling the browser to expect JSON data, which is why you are seeing JSON instead of the actual page.

To render the same page as in the `home` action in the `run` action, you can remove the `header('Content-type: application/json');` line from the `run()` function. This will allow the page to be rendered as HTML instead of JSON.

Your `run()` function should look like this:

php
public function run(){
// Your code here
$this->render('home'); // Render the 'home' view
}


By removing the `header('Content-type: application/json');` line, the page should now be rendered as HTML in the browser when the `run` action is called.
