Form_Open And Form_Close In Codeigniter

In this article, we will discuss "form_open" and "form_close" methods in codeigniter.

Purpose

First, load the helper in the controller using the following code.

$this->load->helper('form');

Consider the following code

<body><div id="container"><div id="body"></div></div>
	<?php echo form_open(); 	?>
	<?php echo form_close(); ?></body>

Once you see the rendered HTML, you can see the opening and the closing form tag.

You can pass the attribute array inside the "form_open" method

	<?php
$attributes = array(
    'method' => 'get',
    'id' => 'myform'
);
echo form_open('users_list', $attributes); ?><?php echo form_close(); ?>

Here is the rendered HTML
