displaying a variable value in flashdata

I am trying to display the value of a id given to a class via a flash message.  Currently is is only displaying the string section of the message ie. "Your class code is: " so the issue is the concatenation of the string and the variable. However, when i have tried just displaying the variable without the string section nothing appears. Do I need to pre-process the variable before I set it in the flash data?

The code is:

$this->session->set_flashdata('class_id', ('Your class code is: '.$class_Id));

Then $class_id must be empty...

Then $class_id must be empty...

Not empty. Already tested that.

Your doing it wrong your code is setting flash data not returning it for display.

PHP Code:

'Your class code is: '.$this->session->flashdata('class_id'); 


Will display the flashdata.

What did you Try? What did you Get? What did you Expect?

I have no issue with displaying the flashdata.  I'm having issues with the concatenation of the string with the variable.

Then flashdata has nothing to do with your bug. You say $class_id is not empty and you did the concatenation ( 'Your class code is: '.$class_Id ) but you also say the concatenation is not working. This doesn’t make sense. This variable is empty. There’s no magic way to concatenate two variables. Re-read your code, or post it here. But with the little information we have, there’s no other explanation.
