Suppose in the process of trying to execute foo/original_post, some condition is detected that causes a problem and I want to pass all the submitted POST data to some method in another controller/method, say bar/some_other_method and have that other method display something entirely different based on the POST data. Is this possible?

Code:

class Bar extends CI_Controller {

   public _construct {
       ...
   }

   public function original_post {

       $post = $this->input->post();

       if (!empty($post['condition'])) { // Some condition for switching to an alternative method.

           $this->alternative_post();

           return; // Don't forget this.
       }

       $data = array(/*...*/); // Other data.

       $this->load->view('original_post_view', $data); // $_POST data is accessible in the view through form_helper functions set_value(), etc.
   }

   function alternative_post() { // Or named as _alternative_post if we don't want this method to be accessed bi the browser.

       //$post = $this->input->post(); // If this is needed.

       $data = array(/*...*/);

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

}
