Hype form validation question - El Forum - 02-06-2012

Hi to all.
I need guidance from the community. Maybe it's a language barrier question, maybe I'm just not knowledgeable enough.
I have a complete and running website with CI 2.1 to which I need to add a "help us imprive this page" form.
Is anyone familiar with this type of improvement? Does such a thing exist with CI? If so can you tell me how it is called?
I have tought to add validation code on every controller... But that is a lloonngg job.
I have tried with the help of a function in a helper to no success.
Thanks in advance for any pointer.

I'm a bit confused as what your asking for. But it kinda sounds like you could use a post_controller hook to add a "help us improve this page" form on every page.

Hello.
I would like to add a form to every single pages on a running website.
I've just read on post_controller hook. I'm not sure that I understand : I could get some code executed every single time I run a function into a controller?
My case would require post_controller_constructor if I understand correctly to "thank" the visitor for submitting the form and prepare the flash data prior to displaying the webpage.
I'll check on this. Hooks would definately be a first for me.
Thanks
Regards
Marc

MY_Controller

Add the form to your template file, have the form POST to a controller/method.
Put the $this->uri->query_string() in a hidden input, and redirect back after the processing.
No worries.

Wow!
Read on hooks and on MY_Controller.
Both approaches work just fine for my needs. Thanks to you guys.
I have chosen to go with hook simply because it was suggested first and I had a working test hook before I got suggested the MY_Controller method.
Thank you very much.
Marc.
