Question

I am getting the following error in my CodeIgniter install which I cant seem to solve:

A PHP Error was encountered Severity: Notice

Here is my code

 <div class="control-group">

                <span class="field_error"><?php echo $settings_dob_error; ?></span>
                <?php endif; ?>
            </div>
            </div>

Can someone explain what this relates to?

Would you mind telling us, where is the line 515 is?

The error refers to the form_label. The second parameter should be a string while the third can be an array.

 form_label(lang('settings_dateofbirth'), 'dateofbirth', $attributes);
