@RyanVincent 10q. But my question is how controller class can inherit from another controller class — HizClick, Jun 22 '16 at 14:36
@RyanVincent thank you. But I need to create user control class to access it. am write? — HizClick, Jun 22 '16 at 15:02
No, the controller can execute whatever it wants to. If it wants to use a 'particular user model' then it loads it. see : [Loading a Model](https://www.codeigniter.com/userguide3/general/models.html#id4) It is 'in charge' of what runs and in what order. However, it doesn't know about the details of 'users' unless it needs to. Likewise, the users doesn't know why it was loaded - it just has to do what it was asked to do. i.e. Neither extends the other? The 'user' should not even know a 'controller' exists. It just gets it's methods called from 'somewhere'. — Ryan Vincent, Jun 22 '16 at 15:15
@RyanVincent thank you again. here is what i attempt to do now class log extends CI_controller { ....}, class user{....}, class employee extends user{ }. — HizClick, Jun 22 '16 at 15:19

basically codeigniter only pick one class into one controller . it better to use a helper in which you define your class and then load helper and then call your methods within controller
