Navigation menu from database

[eluser]mikemiller[/eluser]
You need to pass the data required by the navigation view into the top level view to then pass into the nav view.

Controller code:

Code:

<?php

class Test123 extends CI_Controller {

    public function test() {
        $this->load->model('menu');
        $data = array();
        $data['menu'] = $this->menu->getMenuItems();
        $this->load->view('template/{whatever top level view is called}', $data);
    }
}

View code:

Code:

<?php $this->load->view('template/header'); ?>
<?php $this->load->view('template/navigation',$menu); ?>
<div id="page-wrapper">
    <div class="row">
        <h1>Title</h1>
    </div>
    <div class="row">
        <p>Paragraph</p>
    </div>
</div>
&lt;?php $this->load->view('template/footer'); ?&gt;

Your data array would also need to hold the info for the top level view and anything you need to pass into the template views
