Here is way I am working on my controller home. Just need a function in a library or my_controller to make this work

Code:

<?php if ( ! defined('BASEPATH')) exit('No direct script access allowed');

class Home extends MY_Controller {

public function __construct(){
            parent::__construct();
             $this->load->helper('array');
       }

       public function index(){
  
  // Need It Setup Like This

  $data['column_left'] = $this->controllers->load('common/column_left');
  $data['column_right'] = $this->controllers->load('common/column_right');
  $data['content_top'] = $this->controllers->load('common/content_top');
  $data['content_bottom'] = $this->controllers->load('common/content_bottom');
  $data['footer'] = $this->controllers->load('common/footer');
  $data['header'] = $this->controllers->load('common/header');

  if ( ! file_exists('template/common/home.tpl')) {
      $this->load->view('template/common/home.tpl', $data);
  } else {
      $this->load->view('default/template/common/home.tpl', $data);
  }      
}
}

home.tpl

<-- Need to be able to echo like below in my home view

Code:

<?php echo $header; ?><?php echo $column_left; ?><?php echo $column_right; ?>
<div id="content">&lt;?php echo $content_top; ?&gt;
<h   none;">&lt;?php echo $heading_title; ?&gt;</h1>
&lt;?php echo $content_bottom; ?&gt;</div>
&lt;?php echo $footer; ?&gt;
