Controller Question

In the index funtion the code is .

function index() {

$data['title']="Welcome to Claudia's site";
.......
.......
}

How is it that $data['title'] becomes $title in the template view as you write ?

Thanks.

....was trying to get some projects out the door, but now i'm back!

$data['title'] in the controller becomes $title in the view via a simple process:

Right before you load the view, you have to load the vars stored in $data, like this:

PHP Code:


			
function index(){

  $data['title']  = "This is my title....";

  $data['other_stuff'] = "Other stuff....";



  $this->load->vars($data);

  $this->load->view('template');



}

After that, create a template.php view, and in that, you can use $title and $other_stuff, etc.
