Basic Form Help

Cool, that kinda makes things clearer. Thank god I don't have to go putting displays into the model.

Just working on validating my form now, I get that ok it's just returning errors is the issue now.

The example is as follows

Code:

function index()
{
    $this->load->helper(array('form', 'url'));
    
    $this->load->library('validation');
        
    $rules['username']    = "required";
    $rules['password']    = "required";
    $rules['passconf']    = "required";
    $rules['email']        = "required";
    
    $this->validation->set_rules($rules);
    
    $fields['username']    = 'Username';
    $fields['password']    = 'Password';
    $fields['passconf']    = 'Password Confirmation';
    $fields['email']    = 'Email Address';

    $this->validation->set_fields($fields);
        
    if ($this->validation->run() == FALSE)
    {
        $this->load->view('myform');
    }
    else
    {
        $this->load->view('formsuccess');
    }
}

Which is fine when the page I'm returning is a new page but what if the form is only a small part of the page, i.e. if I want to return to the home page, the form being on the left of it?

It seems like a lot of work to go through the load->view('home') plus running all the functions in the model for the data etc.
