My code :

PHP

if($mail->Send()) 
				  
				  {
					 $this->session->set_flashdata('Smessage','<span class="label label-info">Your request has been sent!</span>');
					 header("location:$baseurl/index.php");
					 
				  } 
				  else 
				  {
					echo "Mailer Error: " . $mail->ErrorInfo;
					$this->session->set_flashdata('Fmessage','<span class="label label-info">Message could not sent.Please contact Administrator.!</span>');
					header("location:$baseurl/index.php");
				  }

After sending mail from controller, if mail sent successfully i need to redirect user to home page

but the problem i'm facing is i got redirected to view(home) but the url is not changing it remains unchanged.. i want both redirection and url change...

Unchanged URL is usually a result of server redirects, but since it's unclear... Have you checked server response and next browser request - for example, with Fiddler2 tool? What does it show? Does this issue exist in all browsers? The problem can be reproduced locally on the server itself?

Yes,The problem exists on all browsers..actually i'm trying to redirect to a page(application/views/home.php) from the controller under the method "register". After redirecting the url is looks like "http://192.168.1.62/mobile/index.php/home/mail". preferred url is "http://192.168.1.62/mobile/index.php/home". how to remove the method name 'mail' from the url ?

Actually I'm not familiar with PHP and MVC pattern implementation there. I would suggest looking here - it proposes to include JavaScript (which will work in all cases) and also mentions something about controllers and output

Solution 1

In codeigniter use redirect instead of header.

PHP

redirect('controller_name');

For example in your case :

PHP

redirect('home');
