I was trying to get once field value from database and error is showing saying cant convert to string.

The controller is as follows :

Code:
function storage($selected_stack=''){

if($selected_stack=='')

{

$selected_stack=$this->input->post('selected_stack');

}

$this->data['selected_stack'] = $selected_stack;

$this->session->set_userdata('storage_id', $selected_stack);

$row = $this->Stack_model->addstacks($selected_stack);

$this->data['stackname'] = $this->Stack_model->getstack($selected_stack);

$this->data['storage_id'] = $this->session->userdata('storage_id');

$this->data['pagetitle'] = 'Stack';

$this->load->view('stack/addtostorage', $this->data);

}

Model is as follows:

Code:
function getstack($selected_stack)

{

$resultstack    =    $this->db->query("SELECT stack FROM stack WHERE id='$selected_stack'");

return $resultstack->row();

}

View

Code:
&lt;?php echo $stackname?&gt;

error:

Code:
A PHP Error was encountered

When i do this its printing the contents,

Code:
&lt;?php print_r($stackname)?&gt;

result :

stdClass Object ( [stack] => Travel )

But how can i get the Travel alone to be displayed on the screen..??

Code:
print_r($stackname->stack);

Code:
print_r($stackname->getStack());

If the object has setter and getter methods.

In your view you need to do:

Code:
&lt;?php echo $stackname->stack; ?&gt;
