Answer 1

?php $this->load->view('include/pagetoptodo', $pendingtask); ?>
is where your error is: the second parameter needs to be an array. So:
?php $this->load->view('include/pagetoptodo', array('pendingtask'=>$pendingtask)); ?>
in order to pass to a sub-view

Answer 2

In Your pagetopnavigation view page you used the variable "$pendingtask"
(<?php $this->load->view('include/pagetoptodo', $pendingtask); ?>)
The error what you are getting is a Notice => it is saying the variable($pendingtask) is not defined in your code ; it will not stop the execution of file, you can stop "Notice and Warning" messages by using error_reporting method or you can set up this in Codeigniter configurations, check this link for reference : http://phpdog.blogspot.in/2012/02/codeigniter-error-reporting-handling.html
