Question

Using PHP, If I have a model (a class) where I various queries, whatever I need, and in my controller, I use myModel = new CustomerModel(); and later in the controller, say I call myMyodel in the controller (I know looks like codeigniter but I am not using a framework) to:

$data[‘query’] = myModel.OrderByLastName();

how do I pass that $data[‘query’] to a view, a separate .php page?

I don’t wan to echo anything from my controller.

Also, was hoping this design, the way I explained it makes sense. Or am I wasting time with the model class?

Typically, you’d instantiate a view object:

$view = new View();

Pass it the info it needs():

$view->set($name1, $value1);
$view->set($name2, $value2);
...

Then invoke the view’s renderer:

$view->render();
