Question

I am trying to echo a request in the view file in Kohana using Request::factory() method and i am sending a value in that request which i am unable to get in the User Controller here is my code:

The View file:

<h1> Welcome to My First View File </h1>
<?php echo Request::factory("user",array("id" => 123))->execute(); ?>

Then the User.php Controller have this code:

<?php defined('SYSPATH') or die('No direct script access.');

class Controller_User extends Controller {

    public function action_index()
    {
        $value = $this->request->param('id');

        $content = View::factory('menu')->bind("id", $value);

        $this->response->body($content);
    }            

} // End User

and the view menu.php have this code:

<h2> This is the view called by Request and Parameters send was: 
     <?php echo $id; ?>
</h2>

when i run the code it display the text This is the view called by Request and Parameters send was: but it doesn’t display the $id anyone can tell me why?

P.S: sorry for my bad English as its not my native language

Here you can see, that Request::factory() requires URI value a the first param. So, you should call something like:

<h1> Welcome to My First View File </h1>
<?php echo Request::factory(Route::get("user")->uri(array("id" => 123)))->execute(); ?>

or

<h1> Welcome to My First View File </h1>
<?php echo Request::factory("user/123")->execute(); ?>

First example uses reverse routing, where “user” is a Route name. I assume that you already have Route for handling URIs like ‘/user/123’.
