Question

I am having fun with codeigniter but having an annoying little problem at the moment though, when trying to delete an item I get ” Message: Undefined property: Site::$url ” my only guess can be that something is not right with the url helper being included? I am autoloading it in the config.

this is my delete function in the model

 function delete_record()
 {
  $this->db->where('id', $this->url->segment(3));
  $this->db->delete('items');

 }  

here I am calling it in the view:

<?php echo $row->subject; ?> <?php echo anchor("site/delete/$row->id","Delete");?> 

this is the controller:

function delete(){
  $this->Site_model->delete_record();
  $this->index();
  }  

and just to make sure I am not doing anything wrong.. this is in autoload in the config:

$autoload['helper'] = array('url', 'form');
$autoload['libraries'] = array('database'); 

Much appreciated for any help!!

Answer 1

There is no url class.

You want to switch $this->url->segment(3) to $this->uri->segment(3) noting the I instead of the L.

The url helper is for generating site urls, etc. The URI class is an integral part of the CI core so it is always loaded.
