Answer 1

Codeigniter is an MVC (Model - View - Controller) framework. It's really not a good idea to call a function from the view. The view should be used just for presentation, and all your logic should be happening before you get to the view in the controllers and models.

A good start for clarifying the best practice is to follow this tutorial:

It's simple, but it really lays out an excellent how-to.

I hope this helps!
