    <p>I am wondering what is considered best practice when passing info from a controller to a model. More specifically, I am creating a user registration model within a user class that asks for certain info such as email, name, and password.</p> <p>I am wondering if it is better to put parameters within the model function and pass them that way or if is better to just call the function and use the $_POST variables for the query.</p> <p>Here are the two examples I am referring to.</p> <p>Method 1</p> <pre><code>function register(){ $first_name = $this-&gt;input-&gt;post('first_name'); $last_name = $this-&gt;input-&gt;post('last_name'); $email = $this-&gt;input-&gt;post('email'); $password = $this-&gt;input-&gt;post('password_1'); $this-&gt;user_model-&gt;register_user($email, $password, $first_name, $last_name));} function register_user($email, $password, $first_name, $last_name){ $sql = "INSERT INTO users (user_id, email, passwd, first_name, last_name, registration_date, confirmed, confirmation_code, banned)VALUES (NULL, ?, ?, ?, ?, '".date('Y-m-d')."', 'no', '1fg455675', 'no')"; $register = $this-&gt;db-&gt;query($sql, array($email, $password, $first_name, $last_name)); return $register; } </code></pre> <p>Method 2</p> <pre><code>function register(){ $this-&gt;user_model-&gt;register_user()); } function register_user(){ $first_name = $this-&gt;input-&gt;post('first_name'); $last_name = $this-&gt;input-&gt;post('last_name'); $email = $this-&gt;input-&gt;post('email'); $password = $this-&gt;input-&gt;post('password_1'); $sql = "INSERT INTO users (user_id, email, passwd, first_name, last_name, registration_date, confirmed, confirmation_code, banned)VALUES (NULL, ?, ?, ?, ?, '".date('Y-m-d')."', 'no', '1fg455675', 'no')"; $register = $this-&gt;db-&gt;query($sql, array($email, $password, $first_name, $last_name)); return $register; } </code></pre> <p>I have removed a lot of the validation code and what not to simplify the matter so hopefully you get the idea.</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.
