Hello,

is it possible to display the error msg with header/footer ?

for example:

Code:
&lt;?php

if(1 != 2) {

show_error('1 is not 2');

}

?&gt;

i want to display the message like:

Code:
$this->load->view('header');

&lt;?=$errMsg;?&gt;

$this->load->view('footer');

I already tried to modify the "error_general.php", but only get error that $this is not a object in this context.

Thanks for help

Try this in your Controller

Code:
&lt;?php

    $data['errMsg'] = show_error('1 === 2'); // default to prevent undefined error message

    if(1 != 2) {

      $data['errMsg'] = show_error('1 is not 2');

    }

    $data['header' = $this->load->view('header', $data, TRUE); // see CI help on Loader Class 

    $data['footer' = $this->load->view('footer', $data, TRUE); // see CI help on Loader Class 

    $output = $this->load->view('header', $data, TRUE); // added $data

    echo $output;

  ?&gt;

 
 
Your view

Code:
&lt;html&gt;

   &lt;head&gt;

     &lt;title&gt;Title goes here&lt;/title&gt;

     &lt;?= $header ?&gt;

   &lt;/head&gt; 

   &lt;body&gt;

     <div>

       &lt;?=$errMsg;?&gt;

     </div>

     <div>

       &lt;?= $footer ?&gt;

     </div>

  &lt;/body&gt;

&lt;/html&gt;

it looks in any way ugly. isnt there any easier way to just include header/footer directly in the error_general.php ? should be always the same header/footer templates, only the error text changes

My apologies, I did not understand exactly what you were after so I will try again.
 
I am not sure how error_general.php but it does accept the $heading and $message variables.
 
To achieve your result then what you could try is:

Code:
&lt;?php include_once($path .'..\..\views\_header.php') ?&gt;

   &lt;?php echo $message; ?&gt;

  &lt;?php include_once(..\..\views\_footer.php') ?&gt;

 
You will have to play about with the paths to make sure they are correct.

if it would be so easy - i had no problem ;-)

the problem with your solution is: normally, i have defined one main_model at autoload, which offers the needed variables for the menu for example in the header/footer itself. but if i just include these files, there's still no class instance you know ?

I think what you are trying to do is far from straight forward and not easily available.
 
Similar problems have arisen in the past with the error_404.php output.
