Getting value of a textbox using form(Codeigniter)

Question

I have a problem getting the value of textbox and transfer it to controller

here's my code

manifest.php(view)

 <form method="POST" action="<?php  echo base_url('PortClient/view_voyage/');?>">  
      <div class=" container">                         
      <div class="row">
      <?php foreach($voyage_info as $voyage) {  ?>
      <input type="hidden" name="voyage_id" value="<?=$voyage->voyage_id?>">
 </form>

      <button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary primary-bg btn-lg  col-md-2 m-3 btn-cus">
          <h3>Voyage - <?=$voyage->voyage_number?></h3> 
          <small>Schedule - <?=$voyage->expected_arrival?> </small>
      </button>

<?php }  ?>

I want to get voyage_id and transfer it to controller

PortClient.php (controller)

public function view_voyage() {
    $this->Auth->authCheck();
    $data = $this->template();
    $voyage_id = $this->input->post('voyage_id');

    $data['view_cargo'] = $this->PortManifestModel->view_voyage($voyage_id)->result();
    // your code here
    $this->load->view("port/client/sub_manifest/sub_manifest_1", $data);
}

The value of voyage_id textbox doesnt transfer

What should I do?

Does $voyage_info only ever have a single entry in the array, if not then check to see if you have multiple hidden inputs with the same name. — Blinkydamo

First of all, add name in your button.

<button type="submit" name="submit">Submit button</button>

modify your controller

public function view_voyage() {
    $this->Auth->authCheck();
    $data = $this->template();

    if($_POST["submit"]){
        $voyage_id = $this->input->post('voyage_id');

        $data['view_cargo'] = $this->PortManifestModel->view_voyage($voyage_id)->result();
    }
    $this->load->view("port/client/sub_manifest/sub_manifest_1", $data);
}

try this...

Please add your submit button within form.

Currently Button is placed after form, you should add it into form.

And also you have correct for loop.
