How to use Model

You may also be having an issue with using $this in your update_entry() method. I do believe the $this object includes a lot more than you are expecting (such as the parent controller's name). You end up passing column names to the database that don't exist.

Change your code to:

Code:

function insert_entry()
    {
        $insert->title = $_POST['title'];
        $insert->content = $_POST['content'];
        $insert->date = time();

        $this->db->insert('entries',$insert);
    }

    function update_entry()
    {
        $update->title = $_POST['title'];
        $update->content = $_POST['content'];
        $update->date = time();

        $this->db->update('entries',$update,array('id',$_POST['id']));
    }
