In an effort to keep as much code out of views as possible, I'm trying to assign a view to an array element in the controller:

Code:
$data['pagePart'] = $this->load->view('somePartOfPage');

Then in the view to be rendered:

Code:
&lt;!-- Header Stuff --&gt;

&lt;body&gt;

&lt;!-- Some other output here --&gt;

&lt;?=$pagePart?&gt;

&lt;!-- Rest of page here --&gt;

Now, the element looks like it should except it is in the wrong place - instead of being further down the page, it renders straight after the opening body tag:

Code:
&lt;!-- Header Stuff --&gt;

&lt;body&gt;

&lt;!-- Output from array element is being output here !?! --&gt;

&lt;!-- Some other output here --&gt;

&lt;!-- Rest of page here --&gt;

It doesn't seem to matter where the array element is inserted in the view code, it is always ends up being output immediately after the <body> tag.

What am I missing?

It should be

Code:
$string = $this->load->view('viewfile', true);

The second boolean argument tells the loader to return the view as a string instead of sending it straight to the browser, which is what is happening to you now.

Ahh, yes. Thank you.

Just a small, but crucial, correction - it needs to be the third parameter.

Code:
$string = $this->load->view('myfile', '', true);
