I have a question about using form_dropdown() - codeigniter

I have a question about using form_dropdown().
table:category
cat_id
cat_name
Controller:
function index()
{
$this->load->model('category_model');
$data['category'] = $this->category_model->cat_getallcat();
$this->load->view('category_input',$data);
}
Model:category_model
function cat_getallcat()
{
$this->load->database();
return $this->db->get('category')->result();
}
View:
<?php
$this->load->helper('form');
echo form_open('send');
$list[''] = 'Please select a Category';
foreach($query as $row)
{
$list[$row->cat_id] = ucfirst(htmlspecialchars($row->cat_name));
}
echo form_dropdown('category', $list);
echo form_close();
?>
error obtained:
A PHP Error was encountered
Severity: Warning
Message: Invalid argument supplied for foreach()
Filename: views/category_input.php
Line Number: 28

the ->result() will return the first row only, so this function is what you want to loop over.
Model
function cat_getallcat()
{
$this->load->database();
return $this->db->get('category');
}
View
foreach($query->result() as $row)
{
$list[$row->cat_id] = ucfirst(htmlspecialchars($row->cat_name));
}
EDIT:
Also, you are sending the result as $data['category'] then trying to access it as $query. So really the foreach would be foreach($category->result() as $row) in this example

You are asking foreach to loop over $query, but I you haven't set $query as a variable anywhere that I can see.
Since you set $data['category'] to hold your query result() in your controller, you need to loop over $category in the view:
foreach($category as $row)
{
$list[$row->cat_id] = ucfirst(htmlspecialchars($row->cat_name));
}

Foreach row array CodeIgniter

I have created a model which joins 2 tables
function list_get($id){
$this->load->database();
$query = $this->db-> select('*')
->from('lists')
->join('list_items', 'list_items.items_list_id = lists.list_id')
->where('items_list_id', $id);
return $query->get()->row_array();
}
In my controller I created the view_list function
public function view_list($id = !FALSE){
$this->load->model('model_lists');
$data["query"] = $this->model_lists->list_get($id);
$this->load->model('model_lists');
if($data["query"]){
$this->load->view('lists/view_list',$data);
} else {
redirect('lists');
}
}
Now my view returns only the first result from the database
<?php echo $query['item_url'];?> How can I create a foreach to show all the results?
change this line return $query->get()->row_array();
to return $query->get()->result_array();
in view
foreach($query as $querys){
echo $querys['item_url'];
echo '</br>';
}
Change this return $query->get()->row_array(); to this
return $query->result_array();
and in view
foreach($query as $row)
{
echo $row['column_name'];
}

codeigniter how to show data in functions

My model:
function get_data($id)
{
$this->db->select('id, Company, JobTitle');
$this->db->from('client_list');
$this->db->where('id', $id);
$query = $this->db->get();
return $query->result();
}
I want to get the the data from get_data(), is this the right way?
public function show_data( $id )
{
$data = $this->get_data($id);
echo '<tr>';
echo '<td>'.$data['Company'].'</td>';
echo '<td>'.$data['JobTitle'].'</td>';
echo '<td>'.$data['id'].'</td>';
echo '<td></td>';
echo '</tr>';
}
Use the row_array() function to get the data in the array format.
Reference url
http://ellislab.com/codeigniter/user-guide/database/results.html
you can use foreach loop to print
foreach ($data->result() as $row)
{
echo '<tr>';
echo '<td>'.$row['Company'].'</td>';
echo '<td>'.$row['JobTitle'].'</td>';
echo '<td>'.$row['id'].'</td>';
echo '<td></td>';
echo '</tr>';
}
thank you
just to improve answer, I use "general_model" for all my controllers, there are some exceptions where I need special queries, I just create desired model so "general_model" stays same and I can use it in any project.
e.g.
general_model.php
function _getWhere($table = 'table', $select = 'id, name', $where = array()) {
$this->db->select($select);
$q = $this->db->get_where('`'.$table.'`', $where);
return ($q->num_rows() > 0) ? $q->result() : FALSE;
}
.
.
.
//bunch of another functions
in controller I just call
$this->data['books'] = $this->general_model->_getWhere('book', '*', array('active' => '1'));
$this->render('book_list_view'); // $this->load->view('book_list_view', $this->data);
sidenote: I am extending CI_Controller therefore I use $this->data['books'] instead $data['books'] to pass data into view
in view
//check if there are any data
if ($books === FALSE) {
//some error that there are no books yet
} else {
//load data to table or something
foreach ($books as $book) {
$book->id; // book id
}
}

accessing result array in codeigniter

I have the following happening in my model:
public function load_user_menu($username)
{
$this->db->select('*');
$this->db->from('menu');
$this->db->where('username', $username);
$query = $this->db->get();
return $query->result();
}
and the following in my controller:
public function index()
{
/*If user previously logged in and not logged out, username remains in session.
load username and load profile data.
*/
//check if user logged in or not
if(($this->session->userdata('username')!=""))
{
//load data from model
$profile = array();
$username = $this->session->userdata('username');
$result = $this->profileModel->user_profile($username);
foreach($result as &$value)
{
$profile['userdetails'] = $value;
}
$this->load->view('profile', $profile);
}else{
//redirect to login function
$this->login();
}
}
but I am getting errors on profile view. I am sure I am accessing them wrong because I am doing this on view:
<? echo $userdetails['profilepic']; ?>
and nothing is showing but this error:
A PHP Error was encountered
Severity: Notice
Message: Trying to get property of non-object
Filename: controllers/profile.php
Line Number: 60
which am certain because of the wrong accessing. How can I access the details based on the above?
assumming you have profilepic inside userdetails and seeing the error you are trying to get he property of nonobject that means
<? echo $userdetails['profilepic']; ?>
should be
<? echo $userdetails->profilepic; ?>
since you are taking you result as object and not array
return $query->result();
or you change this to
return $query->result_array();
$query->result(); produces an object; $query->result_array(); gives you an array
either is fine, depending on your needs
-There is no need of foreach loop in your controller as
$result = $this->profileModel->user_profile($username);
foreach($result as &$value)
{
$profile['userdetails'] = $value;
}
-Try this instead.
$profile['userdetails'] = $this->profileModel->user_profile($username);
-To Access in View,use this as
echo $userdetails->profilepic;
just try this on your view page
<? echo $profilepic; ?>

passing multiple queries to view with codeigniter

I am trying to build a forum with Codeigniter.
So far i have the forums themselves displayed and the threads displayed, based on the creating dynamic news tutorial.
But that is 2 different pages, i need to obviously display them into one page, like this:
Forum 1
- thread 1
- thread 2
- thread 3
Forum 2
- thread 1
- thread 2
etc.
And then the next step is obviously to display all the posts in a thread. Most likely with some pagination going on. But that is for later.
For now i have the forum controller (slimmed version):
<?php
class Forum extends CI_Controller {
public function __construct()
{
parent::__construct();
$this->load->model('forum_model');
$this->lang->load('forum');
$this->lang->load('dutch');
}
public function index()
{
$data['forums'] = $this->forum_model->get_forums();
$data['title'] = $this->lang->line('title');
$data['view'] = $this->lang->line('view');
$this->load->view('templates/header', $data);
$this->load->view('forum/index', $data);
$this->load->view('templates/footer');
}
public function view($slug)
{
$data['forum_item'] = $this->forum_model->get_forums($slug);
if (empty($data['forum_item']))
{
show_404();
}
$data['title'] = $data['forum_item']['title'];
$this->load->view('templates/header', $data);
$this->load->view('forum/view', $data);
$this->load->view('templates/footer');
}
}
?>
And the forum_model (also slimmed down)
<?php
class Forum_model extends CI_Model {
public function __construct()
{
$this->load->database();
}
public function get_forums($slug = FALSE)
{
if ($slug === FALSE)
{
$query= $this->db->get('forum');
return $query->result_array();
}
$query = $this->db->get_where('forum', array('slug' => $slug));
return $query->row_array();
}
public function get_threads($forumid, $limit, $offset)
{
$query = $this->db->get_where('thread', array('forumid', $forumid), $limit, $offset);
return $query->result_array();
}
}
?>
And the view file
<?php foreach ($forums as $forum_item): ?>
<h2><?=$forum_item['title']?></h2>
<div id="main">
<?=$forum_item['description']?>
</div>
<p><?=$view?></p>
<?php endforeach ?>
Now that last one, i would like to have something like this:
<?php foreach ($forums as $forum_item): ?>
<h2><?=$forum_item['title']?></h2>
<div id="main">
<?=$forum_item['description']?>
</div>
<?php foreach ($threads as $thread_item): ?>
<h2><?php echo $thread_item['title'] ?></h2>
<p><?=$view?></p>
<?php endforeach ?>
<?php endforeach ?>
But the question is, how do i get the model to return like a double query to the view, so that it contains both the forums and the threads within each forum.
I tried to make a foreach loop in the get_forum function, but when i do this:
public function get_forums($slug = FALSE)
{
if ($slug === FALSE)
{
$query= $this->db->get('forum');
foreach ($query->row_array() as $forum_item)
{
$thread_query=$this->get_threads($forum_item->forumid, 50, 0);
}
return $query->result_array();
}
$query = $this->db->get_where('forum', array('slug' => $slug));
return $query->row_array();
}
i get the error
A PHP Error was encountered
Severity: Notice
Message: Trying to get property of non-object
Filename: models/forum_model.php
Line Number: 16
I hope anyone has some good tips, thanks!
Lenny
*EDIT***
Thanks for the feedback.
I have been puzzling and this seems to work now :)
$query= $this->db->get('forum');
foreach ($query->result() as $forum_item)
{
$forum[$forum_item->forumid]['title']=$forum_item->title;
$thread_query=$this->db->get_where('thread', array('forumid' => $forum_item->forumid), 20, 0);
foreach ($thread_query->result() as $thread_item)
{
$forum[$forum_item->forumid]['thread'][]=$thread_item->title;
}
}
return $forum;
}
What is now next, is how to display this multidimensional array in the view, with foreach statements....
Any suggestions ?
Thanks
You are using row_array() hence your error, change your get_forums() to:
$thread_query=$this->get_threads($forum_item['forumid'], 50, 0);
But I believe you should actually be using result_array() since you want a list of all forums.

accessing array in array data pass from controller to view of codeigniter

I have this following code in my controller. I want to print the data i have my array.. should it be double forloop or foreach?
CONTROLLER:
public function index()
{
$in_cart = array();
if (!isset($_SESSION['cartProducts'])){
$in_cart['list'] = "No Products";
}
else{
foreach ($_SESSION['cartProducts'] as $key => $value) {
$in_cart[$key] = $this->shopmod->get_one_data($key);
}
$cart['list'] = $in_cart;
}
$this->load->vars($cart);
$data['cart'] = $this->load->view('shop/cart', '', TRUE);
$this->load->view('layout/default', $data);
}
VIEW:
<?php if(is_array($list)): ?>
<?php foreach($list as $row):?>
<tr>
<td><?=$row->name?></td>
</tr>
<?php endforeach ?>
<?php endif;?>
but i have this following error:
A PHP Error was encountered
Severity: Notice
Message: Trying to get property of non-object
Filename: shop/cart.php
Line Number: 18
anyhelp guys? :(
I see you are using Code igniter (nice!)
I would do the following to ensure the $key is taking 'name'
public function index() {
foreach ($_SESSION['cartProducts'] as $key => $value) {
echo $key;
} }
Then
public function index() {
$in_cart = array();
if (!isset($_SESSION['cartProducts'])){
$in_cart['list'] = "No Products";
}
else{
foreach ($_SESSION['cartProducts'] as $key => $value) {
$in_cart[$key] = $this->shopmod->get_one_data($key);
}
}
$this->load->vars($cart);
$data['cart'] = $this->load->view('shop/cart', '', TRUE);
$data['list'] = $in_cart;
$this->load->view('layout/default', $data); }
PHP is telling you exactly what is wrong.
You are trying to access the name property of the $row array when the -> syntax is specifically reserved for objects.
To access array values, you use square brackets and keys: <?=$row['name']?>
Helpful hint to understand - What you're doing is quasi-equivalent to: 7->name, insofar as the left value (7) has no idea how to use the arrow syntax. It's reserved for when the left value is an object. Not an integer, or in your case, an array.
Update after your comment:
You would get at the data like this:
<? foreach($row['list'] as $r):?>
<tr>
<td><?=$r[0]->name;?></td>
</tr>
<? endforeach;?>
