Quote:(5) The 5th is difficult to understand. - The next thing to do is passing this data to the views. - I assume the code is to be pasted into News.php
You're right: the index() method is part of the News controller.
It collects the news items via the model.
It stores the data in an array called
$data.
Then, it passes this array to the views that are loaded:
PHP Code:
$this->load->view('news/index', $data);
The first parameter for loading the view is the view file itself. In this case application/views/
news/index.php.
The second parameter is an
array containing all the variables that you want to pass to the view. In this case
$data.
The view will automatically extract the array. So, when your controller defines an array element
$data['news'], the view can simply process a variable
$news. Which - in this case - is an array itself, containing one or more records. That's why the view index.php has a foreach .... endforeach loop to display the text from all news items.
Are you getting the picture?
