blank result

[eluser]Evollution[/eluser]

Code:

{            
$reshome = $this->input->post('elo1');

in view file
<?php echo $reshome; ?>

and i get blank page but if i post:

<?php echo $this->input->post('elo1'); ?>
i get the correct result why?

[eluser]Wondering Coder[/eluser]
change this:

Code:

$reshome = $this->input->post('elo1');

to this:

Code:

$data['reshome'] = $this->input->post('elo1');

in view
<?=$reshome?>
