as in CI one controller is called at a time and you can call view for controller two controller for example you have called page controller you can just simply load the view

sitename.com/page/test

later you called

sitename.com/gallery/test

now you have called gallery controller now you can call you view here also

I think you misunderstood jis' question, umefarooq.

However jis, like umefarooq said: CI calls one controller at a time. Therefore it is (with Vanilla CI, afaik) impossible to use two controllers to manage one view.

I would suggest placing the functionality you need from the two controllers into a library or helpers.

As I see it, you're having problems grasping some basic OO principles. I suggest you read up on it (plenty of tutorials/good books out there!)

You're trying to puzzle one view together with multiple controller methods where it's actually the other way around: one controller method will puzzle together multiple views (like header.php, content.php and footer.php) to create a webpage.
