[ask] Flashdata problem - El Forum - 04-13-2009

Hi,
I found something weird in CI flashdata session. I call a model function from controller, then on model function I set flashdata using :
Code:
$this->session->set_flashdata('msg', 'blablabal');then when the model function return to controller, and then I just want to read the flashdata on controller with :
Code:
$data = $this->session->flashdata('msg');But It is weird that $data is still empty. But when I refresh the page, so that controller get called again, the $data show the right result which is 'blabala'.
When logout, and try again, get empty again, then get right result again on second call.
Do anybody know, why is that?

Welcome to the CodeIgniter forums!
That's not weird, that's normal. Flashdata is only meant to be available to the following request. That's the point of flashdata - to allow you to pass data from one request over to another, and then dispose of it when you're done. I think you are confusing flashdata with userdata.

Thanks for the greeting.
Yes, I think I understand your points.
Flashdata require nex request to read, isn't it?
So, in my app, I just read flashdata in controller when model call returned, so It still in the same request. Do you think this is the problem?
Anyway, thanks.

As for my experience, I've tried setting it and you can use it on the very same View.

Try it again. I know that in 1.7.1 you can't do that.
