Code:

// Controller
$data['var'] = 'This is generated by the calendar. It generates a string';

// View
echo $var; 'This is generated by the calendar. It generates a string'

How can i find what are the variable that are generated in calendar generate function.

You don't. You only need what is generated by the generate method.

Let me modify that

Code:

// Controller
$data['var'] = 'This IS the calendar. It generates a string';

// View
echo $var; 'This IS the calendar. It generates a string'

So to be more specific, calendar return 'out'.

So when i do

Code:

$calendar = $this->calendar->generate($this->uri->segment(3), $this->uri->segment(4),$data);
$this->load->view('calendar', $calendar);

i can call echo $out;

Am i right?

No
It doesn't matter what variable name it return it as, you can assign it to whatever string name you want, and you assign it to a variable in an array

Code:

$data['calendar'] = $this->calendar->generate($this->uri->segment(3), $this->uri->segment(4),$data);
$this->load->view('calendar', $data);

And you then access it in the view as $calendar

And he said he read the user_guide on Views along with the video tutorials.

[eluser]kevinparker[/eluser]
Yes i read through it, just dint feel that i am making a silly mistake of not putting it in an array, i had the feel that the generate function returns an array.

I will learn.

Thanks bargainph
