Hello, I have searched the internet for several hours but can not seem to find an answer to this question. I am using Modular Extensions and am attempting to pass variables between functions in my "login" controller. For instance, I use a login controller to "post" the login information that a user inputs. I want to use one function to validate it and another function to send it to a mysql database if the CodeIgniter validation returns true.
Here is what my code looks like.
Code:
<?php
class Login extends MX_Controller
{
public function index()
{
$this->load->view('loginform');
}
function validate_Login()
{
$this->load->library('form_validation');
$this->form_validation->set_rules('email_address', 'Email Address', 'trim|required|valid_email');
$this->form_validation->set_rules('password', 'Password', 'trim|required|min_length[5]');
if($this->form_validation->run() == FALSE)
{
redirect('homepage'); //we need to figure out how to repopulate the form data here...
}
else
{
$login = array
(
'email_address' => strtolower($this->input->post('email_address')),
'password' => md5($this->input->post('password'))
);
}
}
function welcome()
{
//I want to access the $login array from the above function and use it here.
}
}
?>
