Code:

A PHP Error was encountered
Severity: Notice
Message: Undefined variable: get_customers
Filename: admin/projects_add.php
Line Number: 20

The select box call in the view is now this:

Code:

echo form_dropdown('customer', $get_customers, '');

Okay .. in very general terms, any variables you are going to use inside your view need to have appeared in your controller in a construct like this:

Code:

$data['my_variable_wot_i_like'] = "some data goes in here";

If you don't do this, then you won't get $my_variable_wot_i_like in your view.

General terms, mind. The above is true because you are passing the $data variable around, and most people use this variable name, and so on. Everyone lies, and all that.

In this instance, $data['get_customers'] is never assigned in your controller. That explains the error you're seeing. get_customers() is a function in your model, but that's not sufficient for CI to work out what you mean


In any case, you need to go thru the other things I've suggested, and see if you're making some headway. I'm orf to bed, and I'm not sure who's on the next shift.
