loading view in codeigniter

Question

HI I have a codeigniter controller called CIcontroller and I have a method say redirectmethod

in the redirectmethod i have some code and then i do this

$data['redirect_page'] = 'page_name';
$this->load->view('template_view',$data);

the template view basically loads header footer and the corresponding view as specified by the data parameter

Now everything works fine but my url has value http:\\blabla\CIcontroller\redirectmethod instead of http:\\blabla\page_name

could anyone help me fix this thing

You need to emit a Location header to tell the browser to load a different page. See redirect in the url helper.

could I pass data with redirect like redirect('template_view', $data)

No, but you could serialize the object and keep it in a session.
