Calling controller methods from inside view in Codeigniter

Question

Is there a way to call a method inside the controller from our view using codeigniter.I know it is a bad practice but, now I force to do this.Thank you

Answer 1

If you want to call a function of the current controller, you have to get the instance of the current controller this way:

<?php
$CI =& get_instance();
$CI->your_method($param);
?>
