I have a page where I want to display dynamic two select boxes.One

Teams select box get data from one model and then other select box get from
Q&A for work 1 other.Then after getting the data it will save the query or result of both
of them and then view into one view page .

I want to save the data in array of two queries and this is my
controller:

function index(){

$data['main_content'] = 'stockInView';

$this->load->model('itemsModel');
$query2 = $this->itemsModel->getAllItems();
if ($query2)
{
$data['records'] = $query2;

$this->load->model('categoryModel');
$query = $this->categoryModel->getAllCategories();
if ($query)
{
$data['records'] = $query;

$this->load->view('dashboardTemplate/template',$data);
}

And then I display them in a foreach loop . But it is only able to display
the 2nd query results or in this case display only categories in one
select box and not the items in other select box.I am doing this for the
first time so I don't know how to do it.

Сhange the line $data['records'] = $query2; when working with

category model to a different $data array element key like this:
2 $this->load->model('itemsModel');
$query2 = $this->itemsModel->getAllItems();
if ($query2)
{
$data['itemRecords'] = $query2;
}

$this->load->model('categoryModel');
$query = $this->categoryModel->getAllCategories();
if ($query)
{
$data['categoryRecords'] = $query;
}

$this->load->view('dashboardTemplate/template',$data);

Then in your view you use $itemRecords and $categoryRecords arrays

to output them to their select boxes.

You are over writing the value of $data['records'] = $query2; with

$data['records'] = $query; So end you will only get second value. You
0 should different array fields like $data['records2'] = $query2;
$data['records'] = $query2;

1 ohh.. thanks a lot.. ok tell me how can i do this.. if i select one option from
first select box then it will give me options in 2nd select box according to
that.. i think it will be done by applying the onchange function of javascript.. i
dont know how to i do it here ,, and also if it will be done without refresing by
using ajax or jquery then it will be more good – user1972143 Jan 12 '13 at

@user1972143 this is a completely different topic, learn AJAX to update the

second select box values when selecting a value from the first one, it can be
easily achieved with jQuery, there are lots of information regarding this
available – Sergey Telshevsky Jan 12 '13 at 12:06

You have two model which is itemsModel and categoryModel. If you

load this two model in construct function then these two model are all
0 time loded in this controller. So you can load this two model in
Construct function. have a look the following code....

public function __construct() {

parent::__construct();
$this->load->model('itemsModel');
$this->load->model('categoryModel');
}

public function index() {

$data['main_content'] = 'stockInView';

$query2 = $this->itemsModel->getAllItems();
if ($query2) {
$data['itemRecords'] = $query2;
}

$query = $this->categoryModel->getAllCategories();
if ($query) {
$data['categoryRecords'] = $query;
}

$this->load->view('dashboardTemplate/template', $data);
}
