I have a form in a view called login_view that I would like to target a function in the Login controller.
For my form in login_view I have echo form_open('/Login/validate_credentials');
In my Login.php controller I have:
<?php if (! defined('BASEPATH')) exit('No direct script access allowed');
class Login extends CI_Controller{
function __construct()
{
parent::__construct();
}
public function validate_credentials(){
$this->load->view('welcome2');
}
}
?>
When I submit the form from the browser, instead of loading the welcome2 view like I expect, it tries to load the URL of:
localhost/project/Login/validate_credentials
and I just see the default page for WAMP.
It's my first day in Code Igniter so I'm sure the answer is simple.
