Form helper doesn't load - webdivision - 09-15-2015
Hello everbody, i am new to the forum but worked with codegniter a lot of times in the past few years.
I have a strange issue, when i am calling the function form_open() from the form helper, i got an php error:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function form_open() in /public_html/application/views/home/homepage_test.php on line 91
A PHP Error was encountered
Severity: Error
Message: Call to undefined function form_open()
Filename: home/homepage_test.php
Line Number: 91
Backtrace:
I call the function form in the autoloader, and any other model, libraries of helpers are loaded fine. So i have tried to remove the form loader from the autolader and load them manually in the controller before i am calling the view, but this also doesn't work. Do someone from the forum maybe have an idea what the error is?
I am using PHP 5.5.25

It does sounds like you are not loading the form helper: $this->load->helper('form');
Although if you are sure you are, can you show the code you are using on homepage_test.php on line 91 and surrounding relevant code? I would normally expect to see the form_open used in a view file, not the controller.
The format should be of the form described in the docs here: http://www.codeigniter.com/user_guide/helpers/form_helper.html#form_open
Best wishes,
Paul.

homepage_test.php is a view, but yesterday i solved the problem by overwrite the system folder, i think some files where corrupted. All is working fine now
Thank you guys for thinking
