I am trying to create authentication for my php website. I am using the codeigniter framework. I will have to validate the session in all the pages of my website. So to avoid the code repetition, i am planning to do it in a helper function. Now that my user credentials are in my database i would like to access the model to query the database from the helper function. In a controller class i would have done this by using \[code\]$this->load->model('user_model');\[/code\]Please let me know its equivalent in a helper file. Any kind of suggestion in approach is also appreciated. Thanks in advance.
