suppose in one controller 'shop' I have 3 functions 'item1,2,3' each of them gives to view file information about 3 items: http://localhost/shop/item1,2,3
and I need a block wich will show information about 4th item and it should be placed on every page together with 3 previous items.
how to avoid redundancy and not to place information about 4th item in each of 1-3 functions?

in the __controller() do..
Code:
$fourthviewdata = array('stuff'=>'my fourth view data');
$data['fourth_item_view']=$this->load->view('fourthitem',$fourthviewdata);Then in 1,2,3 load your views with fourth
Code:
$this->load->view('firstview',$this->data);then in your 1,2,3 views do
Code:
<?=$fourth_item_view?>where you want the block
---
There you have it,
Randy
