Using post data in a second view

[eluser]ozy123[/eluser]
Hellooo,

I have a process which passes through a chain as below:

controller-> view -> controller -> view -> controller -> database search using post data

In the first view I have a form which submits data. In the final controller using $this->input->post() I can't retrieve the data - should I save it to an array in the second controller and pass it along?

Ta!
