View
<h2><?php echo $title; ?></h2>
<?php echo validation_errors(); ?>
<?php echo form_open('news/create'); ?>
<label for="title">Title</label>
<input type="input" name="title" /><br />
<label for="text">Text</label>
<textarea name="text"></textarea><br />
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Create news item" />
</form>
Model
<?php
class News_model extends CI_Model {
public function __construct() {
$this->load->database();
}
public function get_news($slug = FALSE) {
if ($slug === FALSE) {
$query = $this->db->get('news');
return $query->result_array();
}
$query = $this->db->get_where('news', array('slug' => $slug));
return $query->row_array();
}
public function set_news() {
$this->load->helper('url');
$slug = url_title($this->input->post('title'), 'dash', TRUE);
$data = array(
'title' => $this->input->post('title'),
'slug' => $slug,
'text' => $this->input->post('text')
);
return $this->db->insert('news', $data);
}
}
Controller
<?php
class News extends CI_Controller {
public function __construct() {
parent::__construct();
$this->load->model('news_model');
$this->load->helper('url_helper');
}
public function index() {
$data['news'] = $this->news_model->get_news();
$data['title'] = 'Title passes from conttoller';
$this->load->view('templates/header', $data);
$this->load->view('news/index', $data);
$this->load->view('templates/footer');
}
public function view($slug = NULL) {
$data['news_item'] = $this->news_model->get_news($slug);
if (empty($data['news_item'])) {
show_404();
}
$data['title'] = $data['news_item']['title'];
$this->load->view('templates/header', $data);
$this->load->view('news/view', $data);
$this->load->view('templates/footer');
}
public function create() {
$this->load->helper('form');
$this->load->library('form_validation');
$data['title'] = 'Create a news item';
$this->form_validation->set_rules('title', 'Title', 'required');
$this->form_validation->set_rules('text', 'Text', 'required');
if ($this->form_validation->run() === FALSE) {
$this->load->view('templates/header', $data);
$this->load->view('news/create');
$this->load->view('templates/footer');
} else {
$this->news_model->set_news();
$this->load->view('news/success');
}
}
}
Routes:
<?php
defined('BASEPATH') OR exit('No direct script access allowed');
$route['news/create'] = 'news/create';
$route['news/(:any)'] = 'news/view/$1';
$route['news'] = 'news';
$route['(:any)'] = 'pages/view/$1';
$route['default_controller'] = 'pages/view';

If you're new with Codeigniter, please dont play with "config/routes.php"
create form is not submitted when clicked the submit button? HTML form should submitted the form by default (browser will refresh)
Please check in the "Inspect Element > Network" at your browser before you click the form, and see what is going on
