Flashdata: Accessing flash:new vs flash:old - El Forum - 10-23-2012
[eluser]sethkain[/eluser]
I am using flashdata to keep track of how columns in my table are being sorted.
But when I switch from one table column to another there is a delay in them sorting correctly.
I think it is because of flash:new vs flash:old.
The first time I click on Company I get:
[flash:new:Company] => desc
The second time I get:
[flash:old:Company] => desc
[flash:new:Company] => asc
Then if I click on Contract Num I get:
[flash:old:Company] => asc
[flash:new:Contract Num] => desc
I need to be able to access the flash:new variable when I call:cotr_contract_list_sort($sort_field)
$sort_field is a table column name. (ex. Company Name, Contract Num, etc.)
Code:
public function cotr_contract_list_sort($sort_field){
$CI =& get_instance();
//Get FlashData
$order=$CI->session->userdata($sort_field);
//Show Sort Icon
if(isset($order)){
if($order=='asc'){
echo "<img src='".image_url()."/arrow_down.png' id='sort_image'>";
}elseif($order=='desc'){
echo "<img src='".image_url()."/arrow_up.png' id='sort_image'>";
}
}
}Thanks In Advance!

Flashdata is retrieved using session->flashdata(), not session->userdata(). And you don't show how you're setting the column or how this function is being called.
