I want to create form in view file with array $data, like this:
Controller:
$data = array(
'name' => 'username',
'id' => 'username',
'class' => 'form-control',
'placeholder' => 'username here',
);
$this->load->view('login_page', $data);
View:
<?php echo form_input($data); ?>
It doesn't work, I should use $name; $id; $class; $placeholder, but how to do it with form?
when you pass array to the view it turns array keys into variables. so for example in controller
$data['test'] = 'value';
if you pass $data to the view
$this->load->view('view_page', $data);
you wont be able to access $data array in the view, but rather - $test variable
so
echo $test;
would work fine
basically you need to insert your form data into another array like so
$data = array(
'form_data' => array(
'name' => 'username',
'id' => 'username',
'class' => 'form-control',
'placeholder' => 'username here',
)
);
You just need to wrap the input config in an array so it doesn't get broken out into separate variables.
$data = array(
'formParams' => array(
'name' => 'username',
'id' => 'username',
'class' => 'form-control',
'placeholder' => 'username here'
)
);
$this->load->view('login_page', $data);
View:
<?php echo form_input($formParams); ?>
$this->load->view('login_page', array('data'=>$data));
