getting the value of the single field output using the codeigniter active record

Question

the following function is supposed to read the name of the given asset code from the database. but it triggers the error: \"Trying to get property of non-object\"

Answer 1

do like this, asset_types is your table name

function sban_name($asset){
    $this->db->select('name');
    $this->db->from('asset_types');
    $this->db->where('code',$asset);
    return $this->db->get('asset_types');
}

And in your controller acess it like

$result=$this->modelname->sban_name('$asset')->row();
$name=$result->name;
