Codeigniter form_dropdown error - php

Question

I am making a website and i have a function to register clients, and i need to place an option to choose from a database on a dropdown and then it is sent to the users table, i am getting 2 erros atm and i can't find the solution.
This is my Model:
class Home extends CI_Model{
//SQL
function get_prodTYPE(){
$this->db->select()->from('producttype')->where('active',1);
$query=$this->db->get();
return $query->result_array();
}
function get_COUNTRY(){
$this->db->select()->from('pais');
$this->db->order_by("id_pais", "asc");
$result = $this->db->get('pais');
$resultado = array();
if($result->num_rows() > 0){
$resultado[''] = 'please select';
foreach($result->result_array() as $row){
$resultado[$row['id_pais']] = $row['Pais'];
}
}
return $resultado;
}
Then i have a big file where this is the main part for registering
This is my Controller:
function register(){
if(!$this->session->userdata('userID')){
$data['prodTYPE']=$this->home->get_prodTYPE();
$data['info']=$this->home->get_info();
$data['country']=$this->home->get_COUNTRY();
//validacao

I have here the form_helper part for the error:
if ( ! function_exists('form_dropdown'))
{
function form_dropdown($name = '', $options = array(), $selected = array(), $extra = '')
{
if ( ! is_array($selected))
{
$selected = array($selected);
}
// If no selected state was submitted we will attempt to set it automatically
if (count($selected) === 0)
{
// If the form name appears in the $_POST array we have a winner!
if (isset($_POST[$name]))
{
$selected = array($_POST[$name]);
}
}
if ($extra != '') $extra = ' '.$extra;
$multiple = (count($selected) > 1 && strpos($extra, 'multiple') === FALSE) ? ' multiple="multiple"' : '';
$form = '<select name="'.$name.'"'.$extra.$multiple.">\n";
foreach ($options as $key => $val)
{
$key = (string) $key;
if (is_array($val) && ! empty($val))
{
$form .= '<optgroup label="'.$key.'">'."\n";
foreach ($val as $optgroup_key => $optgroup_val)
{
$sel = (in_array($optgroup_key, $selected)) ? ' selected="selected"' : '';
$form .= '<option value="'.$optgroup_key.'"'.$sel.'>'.(string) $optgroup_val."</option>\n";
}
$form .= '</optgroup>'."\n";
}
else
{
$sel = (in_array($key, $selected)) ? ' selected="selected"' : '';
$form .= '<option value="'.$key.'"'.$sel.'>'.(string) $val."</option>\n";
}
}
$form .= '</select>';
return $form;
}
}
These are the 2 errors

Hope someone can help me

Answer 1

your problem is simple, in this part of code:
} else {//registo
$data=array(
'username'=>$_POST['username'],
you're reseting $data to a new array. For a simple solution, use array_merge():
} else {//registo
$additional_data=array(
'username'=>$_POST['username'],
'userTYPE'=>'user',
'password'=>sha1($_POST['password']),
'email'=>$_POST['email'],
'active'=>$_POST['newsletter']==null?0:1,
'name'=>$_POST['name'],
'contact'=>$_POST['contact'],
'country'=>$_POST['country'],
'address'=>$_POST['address'],
'postalCODE'=>$_POST['postalCODE'],
'postalCODE2'=>$_POST['postalCODE2'],
'city'=>$_POST['city'],
'taxpayerNUMBER'=>$_POST['taxpayerNUMBER']
);
array_merge($data, $additional_data);
