parameter passing

[hargi]

I have this code

$this->load->view('editclient_view', $data);
			//$view['main_content'] = 'editclient_view';
			//$this->load->view('includes/template', $view, $data);

Basically what I normally do is set a $view then pass it to the load view which puts it in the main area of the template. So usually its

//$view['main_content'] = 'editclient_view';
			//$this->load->view('includes/template', $view);

However this time I need to pass $data to the view to so

$this->load->view('editclient_view', $data);

works but doesnt load the proper templates.
Any ideas?

Which PHP framework are you using?

I'm guessing your view loader is setup to look for a main_content variable so it knows what view to load. Try setting it and then just add your other parms to the array.


$data['main_content'] = 'editclient_view';
$data['my_data_one'] = 'blah';
$data['my_data_two'] = 'blah2';

$this->load->view( 'includes/template', $data );

Any ideas?

$view['main_content'] = 'editclient_view';
$view['data'] = $data;

That is what will make $data available in the view (as $data). Although I'd rename $view to something else (what post above has done).

Depending on what $data is that your passing, you may want to structure that part of the array slightly differently to make it easier to extract on the other end.

+1 to renaming $view.
