1. Drag'n'drop the extension to the Yii project extensions folder

2. Add that code to your view :

    <?php
    // DDB : paramétre de test 
    $datatree = array(
    	"title" => "idne.softcomputing",
    	"key" => "2",
    	"isFolder" => true,
    	"children" => array(
    		"title" => "sous-dossier",
    		"key" => "2",
    		"isFolder" => true,
    		"children" => null
    	)
    );
   
    $this->widget('ext.dynatrii.dynatrii', array(
    	'dataDyna'=>$datatree,
    	'fieldToRefresh'=>'dyna-target',
    	'controllerAction'=>'Utilisateurs/dynatrii'
    )); 
    ?>
   
    <div id="dyna-target" style="background-color: #CCCCCC"><i>target div</i></div>
   

3. Add that code to the accessRules of a concerned controller :

    array('allow', // allow all users to perform 'dynatree' action
    		'actions'=>array('Dynatrii'),
    		'users'=>array('*'),
    ),
   

4. Add that function to the concerned controller :

    // Action accessed by AJAX request (Dynatree node or create/move/delete button) 
    // Param : CRUD action
    public function actionDynatrii()
    {	
    	$nID=$_POST["nID"];
    	$sCRUD=$_POST["sCRUD"];
   
    	switch ($sCRUD) {
    		case "CREATE" :
    			// CREATE process
    			break;
    		case "SELECT" :
    			// CREATE process
    			break;
    		case "MOVE" :
    			// CREATE process
    			break;
    		case "DELETE" :
    			// CREATE process
    			break;
    	 	default :
    	 	
    	}
    	// global process (database update, view linked with the tree update...)
    	// ...
    	 
    	// Return value : return code & html to print
    	$data = array(
    			"errCode" => "0", // If (retCode < 0) alert(toPrint) else field2refresh.Add(toPrint) ; 
    			"toPrint" => "Action : <b>".$sCRUD."</b><br/>Node : <b>".$nID."</b>", // Html content to print
    			);
    	
    	echo CJavaScript::jsonEncode($data);
    }
   

Well done !
