如何在codeigniter的flashdata中传递一个jquery脚本来触发/显示一个bootstrap模式？

Question

the situation is, I want to show the modal once the form submission is successful. what i currently do is, after I submit and the form was submitted successfully, I redirect to the same input page. Now the question is, is it possible to set the flash data and pass a jquery script to toggle the modal upon redirection ? here's how i set it in the controller function after the submission was successful.

$js = "<script>$('#mymodal').modal('show');</script>";
$this->session->set_flashdata('js',$js);

then on the view file , I placed a checker at the top so that I will get triggered upon redirection to it.

if($this->session->flashdata('js')){
   echo $this->session->flashdata('js');
}

but unfortunately, the modal didn't get triggered to popup at all.. show how ?

You can do it with this way..

From coontroller ... You send a simple flash message like..

$js = "1";
$this->session->set_flashdata('js',$js);

And In View,

 <?php 
    if(isset($this->session->flashdata('js')) && $this->session->flashdata('js')=="1"){
    ?>
       <script>$('#mymodal').modal('show');</script>
    <?php } ?>

It will be working fine, Enjoy the code.
