Input hidden

[eluser]the_unforgiven[/eluser]
No the output for the hidden field a string of numbers like 12345 which I'm trying to get it to add to the database.

Code:

echo form_hidden('CustomerID', $query->AutoKey);

which outputs a number like i said which in this case is: 31892

Thats great that it outputs in your source, but does your $_POST dump show that value?

Double check your generated view. (eg: view source) Are you sure you don't have duplicate input fields with the name CustomerID?

eg: name="CustomerID"

Your Form Validation is backwards!

Code:

if ($this->form_validation->run() == FALSE)
{
    $this->load->view('myform');
}
else
{
    // this is where you should be checking your input->post()
    $this->load->view('formsuccess');
}
