I've created a child block and inside there is a counter.
Now I need that value from the counter but the output is/shall before my block.
Is that possible?
It shall look like this:
html
output the value of my counter
childBlock (inside that block I will retrieve my counter value)
Best Answer
You can get childblock and pass parameters to it.
So in the parent before the
getChildHtml('childBlock')
function useecho $this->getChild('childBlock')->setCounter(123)->toHtml();
