form validation help PLEASE

The structure of where you put things in what controller is entirely up to you, as long as it works correctly. What I end up doing is having a view structure look like this:

/Application/Views/global/header.php
/Application/Views/global/footer.php
/Application/Views/home.php

and in home.php

<?php
$this->load->view('global/header.php');
//HTML MARKUP
$this->load->view('global/footer.php');


That way im only calling one view from the controller, but then again its entirely up to you. You can have php in your view, its not a bad thing, you can even call models from your view, i've had to do that before. As long as it works and you're happy with it then it's ok.
