Hello. I am having one php controller named as event.php and one view file with the same name event.php. Now what I want to do is to call that controller file's function from my javascript but it calls view file instead of controller file. What should be the problem behind this? please help me. Thanks in advance.

Please provide more detail.
What function are you calling in the event controller?
Can you change the view file name and test again.

I'm sorry, it's impossible to help without viewing your javascript or controller code.

Yes it is possible, the javascript must create and submit a URL to the server in the same fashion as a browser might.

Yes it's possible, just direct to or include the proper url, www.somesite.com/controller/function
You say it calls the view file but that's not how it works. The router directs to the controller function first and the function then calls the view file. I don't know how you would call this from your javascript file, depends on which js library you are using.
