How to pass a value from a Model to a controller that did not call that Model

[eluser]alvaroeesti[/eluser]

Hello,



After checking at the Model that username and password are correct I want to go to the Administration panel.

First, I dont know if I am "going the right way" because I am using a

Code:

header("Location: http://localhost/realestate/etc/");

I mean, it takes me alright, but I dont know if that is the way to do it, because

the second issue is that at the Admin Panel I need to have that thing of Welcome Username and the logout link, and it is that Username that I am sending from the Model.

I imagined I would do the session_start () at the Administration panel and then I would do $_SESSION('username') = $username;

any idea what the way to send the $username from the Model so that I can pick it up at the Admin panel?


thank you
