Problem with validation redirect - El Forum - 07-06-2011

[eluser]jacobson[/eluser]
Hello, I have a problem... I have a register form and I have in my controller "register" a method process which process data from the form, checks validation etc...
I have a line :

Code:
if($this->form_validation->run() == FALSE){

            $this->index();

        }else{

            if($query = $this->data_process_model->add_new_user()){

                $data['main_content'] = 'register_success';

                $this->load->view('includes/template', $data);

            }else{

                $this->index();

            }

        }

And everything workes fine except one thing. When the user puts wrong data it "redirects" by $this->index. But in my URL i have localhost/index.php/register/process address. When I try redirect('register') it works but no errors appears when user puts wrong data, so $this->index() is needed. What can I do in order to have proper url after form submitting.
Thx for respnding.

Use like this:

Code:
$this->load->view('register', $data);

instead of $this->index(); Wink

He might have code that he needs executed in the index() function before loading the registration page, in that case what he could do is something like this:

Code:
redirect('register');

Code:
redirect(base_url() . 'register');

depending on how you have your site setup.

I just re-read his question, looks like I was the one to misunderstand.

jacobson: Is the problem that errors aren't displaying, or the form isn't populating with the data they entered before submitting?

I have a form with some validation. All data from the form are being processed to the process method in register function. There I set the validation rules and check whether errors appeared or not if so code $this->index() "redirect" the site with errors on my register site appeared. If I use the redirect('register') it does redirect to the proper site but errors do not appear. But it's not a problem with $this->index() or redirect('register') it's a problem with the URL which still shows the process in the URL after submitting the form.

In my index function in register controller I only load the register view.

This question has been answered already in another thread.
Clean URLs

You cannot get any post data when you redirect() the page because you are doing a header redirect.
