load different views in one view

Hi With views there is an optional third parameter. $this->load->view(filename, data, [return]).
I would perhaps put a variable in your main file called $sidepanel for example.
I would then load the file which has the most appropriate view in (ie login or create) into a variable called $data['sidepanel] in your controller by setting the third parameter as true. Then simply in your main view output the contents of $sidepanel.

Code:

controller{

function index(){
  if($loggedin)
    $data['sidepanel']=$this->load->view('login',$whateverdatarequd,true);
  else
    $data['sidepanel']=$this->load->view('register',$whateverdatarequd,true);

  $this->load->view('main',$data);
}

}#end of controller

##in view

print $sidepanel

Of course if you want to have the two forms on the same page without reloading, then output them both and use Jquery etc to hide one of them!
