Public variable used in views can do or not? - Wong - 01-01-2015
HAPPY NEW YEAR 2015
For User class as :-
PHP Code:
<?php if ( ! defined('BASEPATH')) exit('No direct script access allowed');
class User extends MY_Controller
{
public $tableData;
public function index()
{
...
$this->tableData = $this->table->generate();
$this->load->view('user');
}
}
For User view as:-
PHP Code:
...
<div class="table-data">
<?php echo $this->tableData; ?>
</div>
...
for above example I have declare $tableData is public variable then in view <?php echo $this->tableData; ?> this is good or not ?
or I should pass data array via load view

Happy 2015 to you too!
Think of your situation in terms of coupling. If the data for your view can only come from $this->tableData, your view will be tightly coupled to your class. That means your view will rely on your class to supply the data. That could be ok, unless you can imagine a situation where the data could come from a different source. In that case, it would be better to pass the data via an array.
