Two views one controller

Hey!

I just have one controller:

• Students
  

And two views:

• students_v //Show a list of all students
  form_students_v //the page that has a form to create a new student
  

All that i want is to make the Students controller handles all the methods. I dont want to create another controller called Form_studens.

So... How can i make the original Students take care of the two views? Is the best practice create a method inside the Students to load the form_students_v page? I should use a helper to load that?

Its so confusing to me...

Tks

One controller can have as many methods as you want. Maybe I show a skeleton:

PHP Code:

class Students extends CI_Controller

{
public function __construct()
{
// init student
}

// method for list all students (default)
public function index()
{
// get all students and store in $data
// load view file
// e.g: $this->load->view('students_v', $data);
}

// method for edit a student
public function edit($id)
{
// get the student by $id and store in $data
// load view file
// e.g: $this->load->view('form_students_v', $data);
}

} // Students
