Leave a Comment
After Send email with codeigniter and Send email with codeigniter and smtp today we gonna look how to send email with attachment. Before we start i hope you know how to upload image in codeigniter. Because this tutorial is combination of the send email with codeigniter and upload image or attachment in folder. So let's start with controller i.e. Send_email.php
<?php if ( ! defined('BASEPATH')) exit('No direct script access allowed');

class Send_email extends CI_Controller {

 function __construct(){
    parent::__construct();
 }

 public function sendEmail()
 {
    if($this->input->post('send_email') == 'send_email'){
             $this->load->library('email');
             
              $config['upload_path'] = './uploads/';
              $config['allowed_types'] = 'gif|jpg|png';
              $config['max_size'] = '100000';
              $config['max_width']  = '1024';
              $config['max_height']  = '768';

             $this->load->library('upload', $config);
             $this->upload->do_upload('attachment');
             $upload_data = $this->upload->data();
             
             $this->email->attach($upload_data['full_path']);
             $this->email->set_newline("\r\n");
             $this->email->set_crlf("\r\n");
             $this->email->from('only4ututorials@gmail.com'); // change it to yours
             $this->email->to($this->input->post('email_id')); // change it to yours
             $this->email->subject($this->input->post('subject'));
             $this->email->message($this->input->post('body'));
             if ($this->email->send()) {
                 echo "Mail Send";
                 return true;
             } else {
                 show_error($this->email->print_debugger());
             }
    }else{
      $this->load->view('email_view');
    }
 }

}

Now lets start with view i.e. email_view.php 
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
 <meta charset="utf-8">
 <title>Mass Email Example</title>
 <link rel="stylesheet" href="http://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.5/css/bootstrap.min.css">
 <script src="//code.jquery.com/jquery-1.11.3.min.js"></script>
 <script src="http://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.5/js/bootstrap.min.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
 <div class="container">
  <h1>Email Example With attchment</h1>
  <form action="<?php echo base_url()?>senddatabase_email/sendMassEmail" method="POST" enctype='multipart/form-data'>
    <div class="form-group">
      <label for="exampleInputEmail1">Enter Email</label>
      <input type="email" class="form-control" placeholder="Enter Email id" name="email_id"/>
    </div>
    <div class="form-group">
      <label for="exampleInputEmail1">Enter Subject</label>
      <input type="text" class="form-control" placeholder="Enter Email Subject" name="subject"/>
    </div>
    <div class="form-group">
      <label for="exampleInputPassword1">Body Content</label>
      <textarea class="form-control"  rows="3" placeholder="Enter Email Body Content" name="body"></textarea>
    </div>
    <div class="form-group">
      <label for="exampleInputFile">File input</label>
      <input type="file" id="exampleInputFile" name="attachment">
    </div>
    <button type="submit" name="send_email" value="send_email" class="btn btn-default">Submit</button>
  </form>
 </div>
</body>
</html>

Send Email With Attachment Codeigniter


After filling all form when user click on submit function goes to sendEmail function which is written inside Send_email controller. To send attachment with email we use attach() function of email library.
$this->email->attach()

This above function enables you to send an attachment. Put the file path/name in the first parameter. Note: Use a file path, not a URL. For multiple attachments use the function multiple times. To pass file path we have to upload attachment in folder and make sure folder must be writable (666, or 777). After uploading attachment we get all uploaded data in $upload_data. $upload_data is array we need only full_path key value to do we have do something like this 
$upload_data = $this->upload->data();
$this->email->attach($upload_data['full_path']);

After that we are ready to send email to user with attachment.

Ajax Pagination in Codeigniter

Leave a Comment
We already did normal Pagination With Codeigniter. If you don't know how pagination is work in codeigniter then please go through first that tutorials.

In previous tutorial we already created all needed file for our pagination so let's continue with those files. Below image was our file structure.

Ajax Pagination in Codeigniter


For ajax pagination let's update our controller file i.e. pagination.php 
<?php if ( ! defined('BASEPATH')) exit('No direct script access allowed');

class Pagination extends CI_Controller {

 function __construct(){
  parent::__construct();
  $this->load->model('mdl_pagination');
  $this->load->library('table');
  $this->load->helper("url");
 }

 public function country($offset=null)
 {
  $this->load->library('pagination');

  $config['base_url'] = base_url().'pagination/country/';    // url of the page
  $config['total_rows'] = $this->mdl_pagination->countcountry(); //get total number of records 
  $config['per_page'] = 10;  // define how many records on page
  $config['full_tag_open'] = '<ul class="pagination" id="search_page_pagination">';
  $config['full_tag_close'] = '</ul>';
  $config['cur_tag_open'] = '<li class="active"><a href="javascript:void(0)">';
  $config['num_tag_open'] = '<li>';
  $config['num_tag_close'] = '</li>';
  $config['cur_tag_close'] = '</a></li>';
  $config['first_link'] = 'First';
  $config['first_tag_open'] = '<li>';
  $config['first_tag_close'] = '</li>';
  $config['last_link'] = 'Last';
  $config['last_tag_open'] = '<li>';
  $config['last_tag_close'] = '</li>';
  $config['next_link'] = FALSE;
  $config['next_tag_open'] = '<li>';
  $config['next_tag_close'] = '</li>';
  $config['prev_link'] = FALSE;
  $config['prev_tag_open'] = '<li>';
  $config['prev_tag_close'] = '</li>';
  $config['page_query_string'] = FALSE;

  $this->pagination->initialize($config);

  $data['country'] = $this->mdl_pagination->getcountries($config['per_page'],$offset);
  $this->load->view('pagination',$data);
 }

}

We just added few parameter in pagination config for some basic design. Now lets update our view file 
<html>
<head>
 <link rel="stylesheet" href="http://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.5/css/bootstrap.min.css">
 <script src="//code.jquery.com/jquery-1.11.3.min.js"></script>
 <script src="http://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.5/js/bootstrap.min.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
 <div id="container">
  <h1>Countries</h1>
  <div id="body">
  <?php
   $this->table->set_heading('id', 'code', 'name');
   echo $this->table->generate($country);
   echo $this->pagination->create_links();
  ?>
  </div>
 </div>
   <script type="text/javascript">
   $(function(){
    $('body').on('click','ul#search_page_pagination>li>a',function(e){
      e.preventDefault();  // prevent default behaviour for anchor tag
      var Pagination_url = $(this).attr('href'); // getting href of <a> tag
     $.ajax({
      url:Pagination_url,
      type:'POST',
      success:function(data){
       var $page_data = $(data);
       $('#container').html($page_data.find('div#body'));
       $('table').addClass('table');
      }
     });
    });
   });
  </script>
</body>
</html>

this is our view file we don't need to change in modal file for this. Now you are wondering what's going on view file i will explain but first let's check how our view file look like.

Ajax Pagination in Codeigniter


Let's back to our code i hope you know jquery because we are using jquery with ajax. All magic goes with this below code.
<script type="text/javascript">
   $(function(){
    $('body').on('click','ul#search_page_pagination>li>a',function(e){
      e.preventDefault();  // prevent default behaviour for anchor tag
      var Pagination_url = $(this).attr('href'); // getting href of <a> tag
     $.ajax({
      url:Pagination_url,
      type:'POST',
      success:function(data){
       var $page_data = $(data);
       $('#container').html($page_data.find('div#body'));
       $('table').addClass('table');
      }
     });
    });
   });
  </script>

After document load if user click on one of the pagination link then we have to first remove default behaviour of anchor tag to remove that we use 
e.preventDefault();
after that using "this" we got url of that clicked anchor tag after that call that url using ajax method. on success function of ajax we getting return data in "data params". We store that "data params" in jquery "$page_data". After that we have to find "div#body" from "$page_data" because all our pagination data in that div. After finding data we have to replace old data with new data in "#container" div. We will get next page data on our same page without refreshing page. The last line 
$('table').addClass('table');
is just for design part. I am using same controller function for fist time load and ajax call you can separate both function and also i am loading same view for both call you can also separate both file then you don't need to write so much jquery in ajax success function you have just do something like this 
success:function(data){
       $('#container').html(data));
       $('table').addClass('table');
      }

I did this all thing because to give you optimize code for ajax pagination in codeigniter.
