codeigniter error 3: Undefined variable: alert

Question

I’m making a recording in the bank received from a form, it’s recording, only I want a message to appear after the recording, which was successfully received. But it’s giving the error below. I’ve been stuck in it for 2 days, I don’t know how to fix it. Or any suggested changes to the recording, for json, I’m open to suggestions.

A PHP Error was encountered

        $this->load->model('InicioModel');
        $this->InicioModel->gravarContato($nome,$email,$telefone,$assunto,$texto);

        if($this->InicioModel->gravarContato === true){
            $mensagem = array('class' => 'success',
                    'mensagem' => 'Mensagem enviada com sucesso, retornaremos em breve.'

                );
        }
    }

    $dados = array('alerta' => $mensagem);

    $this->load->view('public/index', $dados);

}

Answer 1

$alerta does not exist in the view because in that if, the key name in $dados will be defined from the array denifining, the Alert key does not find, as the only one defined was class

if($this->InicioModel->gravarContato === true){
   $mensagem = array('class' => 'success' ...
}else{
   $mensagem = array('class' => 'danger'
}

The right thing would be:

$dados['alerta'] =  $mensagem;

Answer 2

Usa flashdata() to create these messages:

$this->session->set_flashdata('mensagem', 'Contato enviado com sucesso');

and in the view check by: if( $this->session->flashdata('mensagem') )

Don’t forget to start the IC session library.
