    <p>Heres my code:</p> <pre><code>//Setup days $data['days']['FALSE'] = 'Day'; //Setup months $data['months'] = array('FALSE' =&gt; 'Month', '1' =&gt; 'Jan', '2' =&gt; 'Feb', '3' =&gt; 'Mar', '4' =&gt; 'Apr', '5' =&gt; 'May', '6' =&gt; 'Jun', '7' =&gt; 'Jul', '8' =&gt; 'Aug', '9' =&gt; 'Sep', '10' =&gt; 'Oct', '11' =&gt; 'Nov', '12' =&gt; 'Dec' ); for($i=1;$i&lt;=31;$i++){ $data['days'][$i] = $i; } //Setup years $start_year = date("Y",mktime(0,0,0,date("m"),date("d"),date("Y")-100)); //Adjust 100 to however many year back you want $data['years']['FALSE'] = 'Year'; for ($i=$start_year;$i&lt;=date("Y");++$i) { $data['years'][$i] = $i; } </code></pre> <p>and here's my if statement:</p> <pre><code>if($this-&gt;form_validation-&gt;run()){ $month = $this-&gt;input-&gt;post('months'); $day = $this-&gt;input-&gt;post('days'); $year = $this-&gt;input-&gt;post('years'); $birthday = date("m-d-Y H:i:s",mktime(0,0,0,$month,$day,$year)); } </code></pre> <p>here's my corresponding code in my form in the view:</p> <pre><code> &lt;p&gt; &lt;label for="birthday"&gt;Birthday: &lt;/label&gt; &lt;?php echo form_dropdown('days',$days). " " . form_dropdown('months',$months). " " . form_dropdown('years',$years); ?&gt; &lt;/p&gt; </code></pre> <p>When I put the datepicker code directly in my controller the drop down on my form shows correctly. I wanted to be neat with my coding so decided to create a model and attempted to make calls from my controller but I get the undefined variable error a few times when my view tries to display the form.</p> <p>I've done some research and wondering whether it's better to make my datepicker a helper "datepicker_helper.php" put the code in there and load it in my controller.</p> <p>Is this the best way to do this?</p> <p>If so can somebody give me a example of how I can do this? If there is another way can somebody show me please?</p> <p>Thanks in advance.. I'm here to learn..</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
