Variables from loaded view

http://www.codeigniter.com/user_guide/li...ader::view

Code:

$this->load->view('extract', $data);

You can also use isset() and/or empty() within the view to determine whether specific variables were set before trying to use them.

In general, though, it sounds like you're trying to put Controller or Library code into a View. It might be difficult in the short term, but it would probably be better in the long term to get as much of the code as possible out of the views.
