I have HTML that uses bootstrap, it is written like this :
<div class="form-group">
<label class="control-label col-md-3">PIB Ajuan</label>
<div class="col-md-9">
<input name="pibaju" id="pibaju" class="form-control" type="text">
<span class="help-block"></span>
</div>
</div>
How can I convert this so it uses the CodeIgniter's form helper https://www.codeigniter.com/user_guide/helpers/form_helper.html.
It is simple:
<?php
$input_pibaju = array(
"type" => "text",
"name" => "pibaju",
"id" => "pibaju",
"class" => "form-control"
);
echo form_input($input_pibaju);
?>
instead of
<input name="pibaju" id="pibaju" class="form-control" type="text">
EDIT: In your Controller, you have to call the form_helper, before you load the view file:
$this->load->helper('form');
Try this
First you need to load form helper
$this->load->helper('form');
Then you can use this
<div class="form-group">
<label class="control-label col-md-3">PIB Ajuan</label>
<div class="col-md-9">
<?= form_input(['name'=>'pibaju','id'=>'pibaju','class'=>'form-control']) ?>
<span class="help-block"></span>
</div>
</div>
