Load view codeigniter with plain text

I am using codeigniter for my website and I was wondering if I could load a view in a view without using PHP. So like a Template Parser, is it possible to run this code:

<div>
    <?php $this->load->view('widget'); ?>
</div>

with plain text like:

<div>
    {loadview:widget}
</div>

Tnx

Sorry, but there's nothing built in to Codeigniter that does this. You'll have to look at using a third party template parser or write your own.

Some suggestions:

With CI's native template parser, you can assign a variable that contains the content:

$data['widget'] = $this->load->view('widget', NULL, TRUE);
$this->load->view('my_view', $data);

The third param as TRUE buffers the output so you can use it in a variable without it printing. Then in your view:

<div>
    {{widget}}
</div>

..but currently, CI's parser has very limited capabilities. I'd go with Twig or Smarty.
