Hello CodeIgniters!
I'm new to the framework and can't seem to get the custom controllers to work..
So far I have a custom base controller:
application/core/my_controller.php
Code:
<?php if ( ! defined('BASEPATH')) exit('No direct script access allowed');
class MY_Controller extends CI_Controller {
private $header_data;
private $footer_data;
public function __construct() {
parent::__construct();
$this->header_data["title"] = WEBSITE_NAME;
$this->include_manager->include_css("css/main.css");
$this->include_manager->include_css("css/labels-in-forms.css");
$this->include_manager->include_js("js/jquery-1.8.2.min.js");
$this->include_manager->include_js("js/labels-in-forms.js");
}
public function set_title($title)
{
$this->header_data["title"] = $title . " - " . WEBSITE_NAME;
}
public function load_header()
{
$this->header_data["includes"] = $this->include_manager->get_head_includes();
$this->load->view('header', $this->header_data);
}
public function load_footer()
{
$this->footer_data["includes"] = $this->include_manager->get_foot_includes();
$this->load->view('footer', $this->footer_data);
}
}
It handles a bit of basic page stuff, as you can see.
Now, my real controller looks like this:
Code:
<?php if ( ! defined('BASEPATH')) exit('No direct script access allowed');
class Welcome extends MY_Controller {
function Welcome()
{
parent::__construct();
}
function index()
{
$data["current_root"] = 1;
$data["menu_items"] = $this->menu_model->get_main_menu_items();
$data["content"] = $this->db->get_where("page_content", array('page_id' => 1));
$this->load_header();
$this->load->view('templates/default', $data);
$this->load_footer();
}
}
I have added the __autoload to config.php and made sure i'm running PHP 5+ (it's 5.2)
Code:
function __autoload($class)
{
if (strpos($class, 'CI_') !== 0)
{
if (file_exists($file = APPPATH . 'core/' . $class . EXT))
{
include $file;
}
elseif (file_exists($file = APPPATH . 'libraries/' . $class . EXT))
{
include $file;
}
}
}
but still i get this nasty error message:
An Error Was Encountered
Unable to load the requested class: my_controller
What am i missing here, guys?
