i wonder how you can make an array global to all controllers?

so that you can have one array and use it for all views like:

$this->load->view('header', $header)

extend the Controller class:

Replacing Native Libraries with Your Versions

in MY_Controller

Code:
class MY_Controller extends Controller

{

  var $header = array();

  function __construct()

  {

    parent::__construct();

  }

}

then in your controllers, you can reference /. change it with

Code:
$this->header;
