if it's actually in an model you'd do it like this in your controller:
Code:
$this->load->model('model_name');
$whatever = $this->model_name->function();
which theoretically should work fine.
if it's in a helper however, it'd be more like:
Code:
$this->load->helper('helper_name');
$whatever = function();
