Zend framework; Getting controller to use different viewer.

Question

I am using the Zend Framework.

I have a controller named 'UserController' that has a public function displayAction().

I would like to know how I can get that action method to use a different viewer than the default display.phtml.

Any help is appreciated.

You can use

$this->render('actionName');

or, alternatively, you can call a view script directly by calling

$this->renderScript('path/to/viewscript.phtml');

For more information, you can take a look at http://framework.zend.com/manual/en/zend.controller.actionhelpers.html, specifically the parts about the render() and renderScript() methods.
