This would probably be a good place to start then: Views : CodeIgniter User Guide.

One idea while you're reading through that page, I use a combination of the steps covered in 'Adding Dynamic Data to the View' and 'Loading Multiple Views'.


For example, in my /views folder I have the following.

'loadview.php' contains:

Code:

$this->load->view('header');
if ($page) {
  $this->load->view($page);
}
$this->load->view('footer');

'header.php' and 'footer.php' contain common header / footer layout, while the $page variable attempts to load anything I pass to it from my controller. So in a controller, doing...

Code:

$data['page'] = 'welcome';
$this->load->view('loadview',$data);

...would create HTML output that consists of 'header.php' + 'welcome.php' + 'footer.php'. Hope that helps.
