what sort of error you are getting post here well i have one helper to create database driven dropdown here is code you have to get you values as id and name

Code:

$this->db->select(‘makeId as id’,‘makename as name’);
      $this->db->from(‘lk_make’);
      $this->db->where(‘status’,‘0’);

if(! function_exists('form_db_dropdown')){
        
    function form_db_dropdown($data=''){
        
        $rows = $data['rows'];
            
        (array_key_exists('options',$data))?$options = $data['options']:$options = '';
        
        if(count($rows) && !empty ($rows)) {
            foreach($rows as $row){
                $options[$row->id] = $row->name;              
            }
        }
          
        (array_key_exists('selected',$data))?$selected = $data['selected']:$selected = '';
            
        (array_key_exists('extra',$data))?$extra = $data['extra']:$extra = '';
        (array_key_exists('class',$data))?$extra = 'class= "'.$data['class'].'"':$extra = '';
            
        return form_dropdown($data['name'],$options,$selected,$extra);
            
    }
        
}

$rows = $query->result() ;

form_db_dropdown(array('name'=>'dd_name','rows'=>$rows))

try it, will work
