I have a input hidden field and I want to grab the value in my model
but this doesn't seem to work
Code:
'CustomerID' => $this->input->post('CustomerID'),So i tried this
Code:
'CustomerID' => $this->input->hidden('CustomerID'),And then got this error:
Quote:Fatal error: Call to undefined method CI_Input::hidden()
What should i do to achieve this?

This is the correct:
Code:
$this->input->post('CustomerID')The problem is probably in your input field, post it.

I have this hidden field
Code:
<?php echo form_hidden('CustomerID', $meeting->CustomerID); ?>Which output a number lets say 3815 so i need to get that value of 3815 and post it to my model in order to post it to the database

Also the
Code:
$this->input->post('CustomerID')Doesn't input into the database, its just inserts a 0 (zero)

Check that the hidden field is inside the form elements.
Next, you can check what $_POST data is sent, by using
Code:
var_dump($_POST);Your hidden field should be somewhere inside it. If it is, then try
Code:
var_dump($_POST['CustomerID');
var_dump($this->input->post('CustomerID'));
die();Let us know where you get.

Now, try what meigwilym said.
Code:
var_dump($_POST['CustomerID');
var_dump($this->input->post('CustomerID'));
