Here are some sample methods from my Controller class. Now when the user clicks the New button $task=add is sent to the Controller and the add() method is called. As you can see it does not really do anything, it just creates a url and forwards it off to the correct view. Is this the correct way of doing things in the MVC pattern?

    /**
 * New button was pressed
 */
function add() {
    $link = JRoute::_('index.php?option=com_myapp&c=apps&view=editapp&cid[]=', false);
    $this->setRedirect($link);
}


/**
 * Edit button was pressed - just use the first selection for editing
 */
function edit() {
    $cid = JRequest::getVar( 'cid', array(0), '', 'array' );
    $id = $cid[0];
    $link = JRoute::_("index.php?option=com_myapp&c=apps&view=editapp&cid[]=$id", false);
    $this->setRedirect($link);
}
