How to use multiple $content_for_layout

Question

I am new to cakephp and I think I've run into my first problem because I need 2 $content_for_layout in my default layout, like this:

<div id="left_collumn"> 
    <?php echo $content1_for_layout ?> 
</div> 
<div id="right_column"> 
   <?php echo $content2_for_layout ?> 
</div> 

I've searched this group and found a thread that suggest using this : http://bakery.cakephp.org/articles/rtconner/2007/08/28/anything_for_layout-making-html-from-the-view-available-to-the-layout and even though I followed the instructions for some reason this is what I always get :http://img38.imageshack.us/img38/3246/sshot1duh.jpg

Do you have any idea why this is happening?

I am not sure what you are trying to do, but maybe you could use an element instead...
