As per here I've got the following controller:
class User extends CI_Controller {
public function Login()
{
//$data->RedirectUrl = $this->input->get_post('ReturnTo');
$data = array(
'title' => 'My Title',
'heading' => 'My Heading',
'message' => 'My Message'
);
$this->load->view('User_Login', $data);
}
//More...
}
and in my User_Login.php
view file I do this:
<?php print_r($data);?>
which results in:
A PHP Error was encountered
Severity: Notice
Message: Undefined variable: data
Filename: views/User_Login.php
Line Number: 1
Do I need to load any specific modules/helpers to get the $data variable populated? If I print_r($this)
, I can see a lot of stuff but none of my data except in caches
Edit: To clarify, I know that calling the variable the same in the controller and view won't "share" it - it's out of scope but in the example I linked, it seems to imply a $data
variable is created in the scope of the view. I simply happened to use the same name in the controller
