Question

Model

function Show_all_products()
{
   return $this->db->get('printer')->result();
}

View

The table contents is being echoed in a loop

 $i = -1;
 echo '<ul class="products">'; foreach($products as $product) : 
 if($i % 11 == 10) echo '</ul><ul class="products">'; 
?>

<li><a href="<?php echo base_url(); ?>does/products/<?php echo $product->id; echo '/'.$product->name; ?>"><?php echo $product->name; ?> </a></li>

<?php 
 $i += 1;
 endforeach; 
 echo "</ul>";

The product names are saved as Something_Something_Blah I cannot modify the product names as they are configured to show clean URL’s and Breadcrumbs.

The issue is that the links in this view show as Something_Something_Blah

I tried to do a str_replace as $product = str_replace('_',' ', $product); However this isn’t working.

How do i strip the ‘_’ and insert \s ?

Answer 1

I see you have <?php echo $product->name; ?> which would mean $product is an object.

So you should call str_replace('_', ' ', $product->name);
