[eluser]rotivo[/eluser]
Hello, i want to pass an argurment to controller function but i don´t want to show this argument in the URI... how can i do it? Thanks.

The most common ways to pass it is either as a form element (generally an input with type="hidden"), or via a session/flashdata or cookie.

hidden inputs are still open to easy manipulation by users, there are now browser plugins that easily let users play with post data, so this is not a secure way of passing sensitive information!!! Same applies to cookies, very easy for the user to alter the data in them.

What are you trying to do?

Why don't you utilize the resources CI gives you?

You can do this simply with the form validation class.

e.g

Code:

if ($this->form_validation->run() == FALSE)
  {
   $this->load->view('myform');
  }
  else
  {
   $this->load->view('formsuccess');

Because I only load a popup if the form sent is successs, the page is the same..not change! but i can try in your way...

In that case, you could use it to check if the form validation is successful, if it is, assign a variable and then use that variable to determine whether the popup should load or not.

e.g

Code:

if ($this->form_validation->run() == FALSE)
  {
   $data['success'] = 0; // fail :(
  }
  else
  {
   $data['success'] = 1; // success!
  }
$this->load->view('some_view', $data);

then in your view.

Code:

if($success) {
  // markup for loading popup
}

That's just off the top of my head though, i'm sure you can improve it.
