Hi Joviac.

Here's how you use the form_open().

Code:

<?php

// load the form helper so you can use set_value, form_open etc
$this->load->helper('form');

echo form_open('location/to/sumbit/to');

echo "Username : ". form_input('username', set_value('username'));
echo "Password : ". form_password('password', set_value('password'));
echo form_submit('submit', 'Login');

echo form_close();

?>

The above form is just a basic form, you can read more about the form helper here : http://ellislab.com/codeigniter/user-gui...elper.html

Hope the above helps you.
