As title said, I'm trying to figure out how to use javascript and jquery libraries on CI.
Following instruction in the docs, I load the library in my controller:
$this->load->library('javascript');
Then, I define the location of the jQuery file (jquery.min.js) in the config.php:
$config['javascript_location'] = 'http://localhost/ci/assets/js/jquery/');
After that, I open the view file and put in these two lines:
<?php echo $library_src;?>
<?php echo $script_head;?>
First error comes up here: Undefined variable $library_src and $script_head (don't understand where I have to set them)
Anyway, I've commented these lines and continue with jquery lib, by loading it in my controller with:
$this->load->library('jquery');
Next error: Unable to load the requested class: jquery. (it seems that it can't find the lib, what i messed up?)
Checking on system folder it looks all files are in place:
system/libraries/Javascript.php
system/libraries/javascript/Jquery.php
Thanks in advance for your help!
Put the code in the config.php like this:
$config['javascript_location'] = 'js/jquery/jquery.js';
$config['javascript_ajax_img'] = 'images/ajax-loader.gif';
In your controller file (e.g. controllers/sample.php) type this codes:
function __construct()
{
parent::__construct();
$this->load->library('javascript');
}
function index()
{
$data['library_src'] = $this->jquery->script();
$data['script_head'] = $this->jquery->_compile();
$this->load->view('sampleview', $data);
}
In your view file (e.g. views/sampleview.php) type this codes:
<?php echo $library_src;?>
<?php echo $script_head;?>
This works for me. I hope it works for you too. XD
