how to put dynamic info in an array?

[eluser]dadamssg[/eluser]
Im trying to put dynamic info in an array. Im setting a session variable to hold which page the user is on so if they login they will be redirected to the page they were on...this isn't working

Code:

$eventid = $row->eventid;
        $newdata = array(
                   'page'  => "event/index/$eventid",
               );
        $this->session->set_userdata($newdata);

Take out the comma at the end of this line

Code:

'page'  => "event/index/$eventid",

just tried it...still not working

Make sure $eventid contains data... make sure session library is loaded

What happens when you try to retrieve the page from session?

Code:

echo $eventid = $row->eventid;

what it returns ?

hmmm its returning the right content. It will hold "event/index/867". But i can't seem to to get it to work in a redirect.

heres the redirect its being used in...in another controller

Code:

$page = $this->session->userdata('page');
                    redirect("$page");

try passing in a second param like:
redirect($page, 'refresh');

or
redirect($page, 'location');

nope, still nothing. im thinkin about using the normal PHP header() function

[eluser]dadamssg[/eluser]
welp, the header() won't work either...wtf.

this is working, where mains is a controller and performance is a function

Code:

$newdata = array(
                   'page'  => 'mains/performance',
               );
        $this->session->set_userdata($newdata);

however this isn't, event is a controller and $eventid is holding a number because im echoing it out onto the page

Code:

$page = "event/index/".$eventid;
        $newdata = array(
                   'page'  => $page,
               );
        $this->session->set_userdata($newdata);

One other thing to check: Are you loading the URL helper?
