Question

Trying to call the projects controller and the editproject function and pass an id number. Can anyone tell me why the second line doesn’t work? When I echo the value in the first line, it does give me the correct integer as a string

<?php echo $list[0]->id; ?>

<?php echo form_open('projects/editproject/',$list[0]->id ) ;?>

The error I keep getting is “Missing argument 1 for Projects::editproject()” My editproject function is function editproject($id).

I did try:

<?php echo $list[0]->id; ?>
<?php $pdata = (int)$list[0]->id; ?>
<?php echo form_open('projects/editproject/',$pdata ) ;?>

Thinking the call to the controller needed a variable for the data. Same error message as above. THanks for any help.

Answer 1

Did you mean to do this instead ?

<?php echo form_open('projects/editproject/'.$list[0]->id ) ;?>

The second argument of form_open() accepts an associative array of attributes, hence, you’re mistakenly passing in the id into the second argument when it needs to be concatenated with the url instead.
