Show alert message on load view - El Forum - 11-13-2012
[eluser]Juzt1s[/eluser]
Hello,
I want to show alert message on specific view load. However, I want that message to be shown ONLY then, when I load that view from specific function, if I load it from another one, the alert message must NOT be shown.
Maybe I can pass it somehow?
like:
Code:
$data['alert'] = 'alert("ALERT!");';I really appreciate your help in advance.
Peace.

Doesn't work that way.

Include this in the $data array you're attaching to the view you want the alert to show:
Code:
$data['alert'] = 'alert("ALERT!")';In the view that you don't want the alert showing, just leave the variable blank so you don't get an error.
Code:
$data['alert'] = '';Show alert message on load view - El Forum - 11-13-2012

Code:
$data['alert'] = 'alert("ALERT!")';
$this->load->view('home', $data);Surely in your code you can then see if the array is empty or not, if i remember correctly... using 'empty' will stop you getting an error if the array doesn't exist.
Code:
<?php
if(!empty($alert)) //if not empty
{
echo '[removed]'.$alert.'[removed]';
}
?>This way you dont have to pass any empty alerts to the other views...

Also, don't think you should be calling an alert function in a variable. Essentially, that's exactly what the $data array is outputting anyways...unless I'm misunderstanding your use of the $data variable. Is that loading data into a view? Set it up something like this...
Code:
//Controller:
$data['alert'] = ''; // no alert
if (something happens)
{
$data['alert'] = 'ALERT!'; // If "something" happens, alert
}
$this -> load -> view('view_name', $data); // pass $data into view
//Then in your view...you can output the alert...
<?php echo $alert; ?>Show alert message on load view - El Forum - 11-13-2012

<?php echo $alert; ?>You could even ditch the "empty" alert altogether, and use this in your view instead of the echo:
Code:
<? if (isset($alert)) : ?>I'm no CI pro, so take my tactics with a grain of salt. Someone may chime in with some better advice.

Or Jquery...?
You could pass a variable to a hidden div, or you could see if the page title = something, or base it on a URL segment?
Code:
<div id="alert"><?=$alert;?></div>
<scr...>
if($('#alert').text().length > 0)
{
alert('this is just an alert');
}

Or... just for fun, we could set flash data
Controller
Code:
$this->session->set_flashdata('alert', 'This is an alert');
$this->load->view('home');View
Code:
<?php if($this->session->flashdata('alert')) { ?>
<scr...>
alert(<?=$this->session->flashdata('alert');?>);
</scr...>
<?php } ?>
