Codeigniter: Passing data from controller to view

Question

I want to pass $data from the controller named poll to the results_view however I am getting an undefined variable error.

Answer 1

Instead of

$data = "hello";
$this->load->view('results_view', $data);

Do

$data['hello'] = 'hello';
$this->load->view('results_view', $data);

In your controller file and controller will send data having hello as string to results_view and in your view file you can simply access by

echo $hello;
