How get the current view name in CodeIgniter?

Question

How get the name of the current displaying view for pass to another function?

Answer 1

If you want to display view name within view :

echo $_ci_view;

Also see print_r(get_defined_vars()) you will see many interesting variables from CI.

Answer 2

You could pass the name of the View to the View.

Controller:

$data = array('viewName' => 'home_view');
$this->load->view($data['viewName'], $data);

Then to access in your view you could retrieve the view name with:

<?php echo $viewName ?>
//produces 'home_view'
