Hi,
Im currently working on a project, and since i dont like the flashdata.. because.. it usualy doesnt work the way i wanted, and i needed to pass messages to the user.. (success, fail, etc), what i did has... in all the methods in the controller i have something like this... i add a $params = array()
Code:
class User extends CI_Controller
{
/**
* Controller default welcome msg
* @var array
*/
private $_cMsg;
function __construct()
{
parent::__construct();
$this->_cMsg = array(
array("type" => "info", "text" => "Welcome to the Users.")
);
}
function edit($params = array())
{
$this->_cMsg = array(
array("type" => "info", "text" => "Edit Users.")
);
// put together all the incoming messages
$data["msg"] = isset($params["msg"]) ? array_merge($this->_cMsg, $params["msg"]) : $this->_cMsg;
// then you load the views and pass
$this->load->view('something.php', $data);
}
then what i have in a little view that loads on top of the page
is something like this
Code:
$count = 0;
echo "<table class='msg-list'>";
foreach($msg as $m)
{
$msgBox = "<tr class='msg ".$m['type']."'>";
$msgBox .= "<td class='icn'></td>";
$msgBox .= "<td class='msg-text'>".$m['text']."</td>";
$msgBox .= "<td id='".$count."' class='msg-close'></td>";
$msgBox .= "</tr>";
echo $msgBox;
$count++;
}
echo "</table>";
and with this you generate a table with multiple rows.. each with a message
if you want to pass a message to that method, i do somehting like
Code:
array_push($msgBag["msg"], array("text" => "Added width success", "type" => "success"));
array_push($msgBag["msg"], array("text" => "Still need to change the users permissions", "type" => "info"));
$this->edit($msgBag);
where im passing 2 messages to the edit method
is not the most accurate way, or the most guru way... but it works for me.
