I have not tried it myself, but I found this in the CodeIgniter 2.1.2 User Guide.

$this->upload->data() returns an array, but the array does not contain the uploaded file. Instead, it contains information about the uploaded file. This is the information it contains.

Code:

Array
(
    [file_name] => mypic.jpg
    [file_type] => image/jpeg
    [file_path] => /path/to/your/upload/
    [full_path] => /path/to/your/upload/jpg.jpg
    [raw_name] => mypic
    [orig_name] => mypic.jpg
    [client_name] => mypic.jpg
    [file_ext] => .jpg
    [file_size] => 22.2
    [is_image] => 1
    [image_width] => 800
    [image_height] => 600
    [image_type] => jpeg
    [image_size_str] => width="800" height="200"
);

So before you load the view, you must use the above information to read the file.

You can use something like this.

Code:

$uploaded_file_info = $this->upload->data();
$uploaded_file_contents = get_file_contents($uploaded_file_info['full_path']);
$data = array('uploaded_file' => $uploaded_file_contents);
// and now you're ready for the view
$this->load->view('common/shome', $data);

Here's information on the PHP function get_file_contents.
