How to get the helper Mage_Review_Block_Helper?

Question

I tried since hours to get the method "getReviewsUrl()" from Mage_Review_Block_Helper to work inside my template.
But nothing works.

The simplest way I found is to use:

echo Mage::helper('review')->getReviewsUrl();

But when I call this from my product-template the site stop loading that is because when I call Mage::helper('review');

It returns "NULL".

So this didn't work.

Next I tried it with

Mage::app()->getLayout()->createBlock('review/product_view',$this->getProduct());

But again no result. Isn't it possible to get the url for the reviews???

Answer 1

Try the new operator;

$block = new Mage_Review_Block_Helper();
$block->setProduct($this->getProduct());
echo $block->getReviewsUrl();
