Hi,
I'm new to Codeigniter and indeed the whole MVC structure, I'm learning fast but have come across an issue I just can't get my head round. Hoping someone can help!
My aim at the moment is a simple enquiry into a database which is then automatically turned into a table and presented via a view. I can pass the data to the View and present it via a Foreach loop without any problems (see below code which works). However, I've spent hours now trying to use the table->generate() approach via the View and I just can't work out whether I'm supposed to run the command in the Model and pass it to a variable which goes to the View (via the Controller) or run the command in the Controller and pass it to a variable. I've tried both with no success. The only way I can get the table->generate to work is by echoing it from the Model or Controller which seems messy and not best practice.
My code is below, at the moment it generates output via a Foreach, anyone who can show/tell me how to amend the code to use table->generate() properly is officially a legend!
Thanks
Tom
Controller:
Code:
<?php
class displayrounds extends CI_Controller {
function __construct()
{
parent::__construct();
}
Public Function Index()
{
$this->load->model('getallmodel',"",TRUE);
$data['query'] = $this->getallmodel->allentries();
$this->load->view('tableview',$data);
}
}
?>
Model:
Code:
<?php
Class getallmodel extends CI_Model {
function __construct()
{
parent::__construct();
}
Function allentries()
{
$query = $this->db->get('Test');
return $query->result();
}
}
?>
View:
Code:
<html>
<head></head>
<body>
<?php
Foreach ($query as $row) {
print $row->field1;
print $row->field2;
print $row->field3;
print "<br>";
}
//$this->load->library('table');
//echo $this->table->generate($query);
?>
</body>
</html>
