can i pass $this->load->view('mainView',$data1,$data2) instead of $this->load->view('mainView',$data) where $data['1']=1 and $data['2']=2;

No.

$data is an array, pass additional information to it.

Code:
$data['one'] = 1;

$data['two'] = 2;

$this->load->view('mainView', $data);

This works:

Code:
$data['one'] = 1;

$data2['two'] = 2;

$this->load->view('mainView', $data);

$this->load->view('secondView', $data2);

But this does not:

Code:
$data['one'] = 1;

$data2['two'] = 2;

$this->load->view('mainView', $data, $data2);

Right now I am using <a href="http://php.net/manual/en/function.array-merge.php">array_merge</a> for the data array. But this includes a lot of unnecessary code in the controller as well as in the view when I have two big arrays to pass.

Is there a way to pass two arrays to a single view?

The load->view function only allows for 1 array to be passed (see the user guide). The third parameter is used for a true/false value to tell the function to either return the output to the function or the browser.

You could extend the loader class and create your own view function.

Thanks. This makes everything clear.

try this one if fits for you

Code:
$this->hcontent['title'] = 'Z FIMS - Flight Destinations';

 $this->hcontent['script'] = 'headers/fl_destination';

 $this->bcontent['greeting'] = $this->fimslib->__greetings().$user_fullname;

 $this->bcontent['logout'] = $user_access.':'.$user_fullname;

 $this->bcontent['query'] = $result;

 $data['header_content'] = $this->hcontent;

 $data['body_content'] = $this->bcontent;

 //$data['header'] = 'header';

 //$data['body'] = 'pages/fl_destination';

 //$data['footer'] ='footer'; 

 $this->load->view('master',$data);

Code:
$data['one'] = array(1, 11);

$data['two'] = array(2, 22);

$this->load->view('mainView', $data);

You now have 2 arrays.

in your view it'd be something like this:

Code:
&lt;?php echc $one[0]; ?&gt; // echo's 1.

&lt;?php echo $two[1]; ?&gt; // echo's 22.

etc

What is the purpose of your two arrays of data? You mention unnecessary code - tell us about your situation if you want a better recommendation.
