<?php $this->load->view('admin/footer'); ?>
i even tried this code
<?php if($this->session->flashdata('success') != ""){ ?>
<div class="alert alert-success"><?php echo $this->session->flashdata('success'); ?></div>
<?php } ?>
but that didnt work too
Update as dontpanic said i have updated my code Category.php(controller)
<?php
defined('BASEPATH') OR exit('No direct script access allowed');
class Category extends CI_Controller {
//this method will show category list page
public function index()
{
$this->load->view('admin/category/list');
}
//this method will show create category page
public function create()
{
$this->load->model('Category_model');
$this->load->library('form_validation');
$this->form_validation->set_error_delimiters(' <p class="text-danger">','</p>');
$this->form_validation->set_rules('name','Name','trim|required');
if($this->form_validation->run() == true){
//will check category in database
$formArray['name'] = $this->input->post('name');
$formArray['status'] = $this->input->post('status');
$formArray['created_at'] = date('Y-m-d H:i:s');
$this->Category_model->create($formArray);
$this->session->flashdata('success','Category added successfully');
redirect (base_url().'admin/category/index');
}else{
//Will show errors
$this->load->view('admin/category/create');
}
// $this->load->view('admin/category/create');
}
//this method will show edit category page
public function edit()
{
}
//this method will will delete a category
public function delete()
{
}
}
Category_model.php (model)
<?php
defined('BASEPATH') OR exit('No direct script access allowed');
class Category_model extends CI_Model {
public function create($formArray){
$this->db->insert('categories',$formArray);
}
}
