Is there a way to create views on the fly? I have a view that lists sports by title. I want these titles to link to their own view (all of them will be the same layout). What's the easiest way to do this?

My View

Code:
<!DOCTYPE HTML>

&lt;html&gt;

&lt;head&gt;

&lt;meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"&gt;

&lt;title&gt;Sports&lt;/title&gt;

&lt;/head&gt;

&lt;body&gt;

    <h1>Sports</h1>

    <ul>

        &lt;?php foreach($query as $item): ?&gt;

        <li>&lt;?=$item->title?&gt;</li>

        &lt;?php endforeach; ?&gt;

    </ul>

&lt;/body&gt;

&lt;/html&gt;

My Model

Code:
&lt;?php if ( ! defined('BASEPATH')) exit('No direct script access allowed');

class Sports_model extends CI_Model {

    function get_all()

    {

        $query = $this->db->query('SELECT title FROM sports');

        return $query->result();

    }

}

My Controller

Code:
&lt;?php if ( ! defined('BASEPATH')) exit('No direct script access allowed');

class Sports extends CI_Controller {

    public function index()

    {

        $this->load->model('sports_model');

        $data['query'] = $this->sports_model->get_all();

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

    }

}

/* End of file sport.php */

I'm not sure what you mean by create on the fly.

Your updated view
Replace the link's id with <?=$item->id;?>, for some reason it won't let me put it that way into the forums.

Code:
<!DOCTYPE HTML>

&lt;html&gt;

&lt;head&gt;

&lt;meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"&gt;

&lt;title&gt;Sports&lt;/title&gt;

&lt;/head&gt;

&lt;body&gt;

    <h1>Sports</h1>

    <ul>

        &lt;?php foreach($query as $item): ?&gt;

        <li><a href="Sports/view/$id">&lt;?=$item->title;?&gt;</a></li>

        &lt;?php endforeach; ?&gt;

    </ul>

&lt;/body&gt;

&lt;/html&gt;

A new view, responsible for displaying the sports information, named view.php

Code:
<!DOCTYPE HTML>

&lt;html&gt;

&lt;head&gt;

&lt;meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"&gt;

&lt;title&gt;Sports&lt;/title&gt;

&lt;/head&gt;

&lt;body&gt;

    <h1>&lt;?=$sport->title;?&gt;</h1>

    &lt;!--Any other sports data you need to display--&gt;

&lt;/body&gt;

&lt;/html&gt;

Updated model, contains new method get($id)

Code:
&lt;?php if ( ! defined('BASEPATH')) exit('No direct script access allowed');

class Sports_model extends CI_Model {

    function get_all()

    {

        $query = $this->db->query('SELECT id, title FROM sports');

        return $query->result();

    }

    function get($id)

    {

        $query = $this->db->query('SELECT id, title FROM sports WHERE id='.$id.'');

    }

}

Updated controller with new method view

Code:
&lt;?php if ( ! defined('BASEPATH')) exit('No direct script access allowed');

class Sports extends CI_Controller {

    public function __construct() {

        parent::__construct();

        $this->load->model('sports_model');

    }

    public function index()

    {

        $data['query'] = $this->sports_model->get_all();

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

    }

    public function view($id)

    {

        $data['sport'] = $this->sports_model->get($id);

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

    }

}
