Models:

function get_particular($sid){
$this->db->select('*');
$this->db->from('members m');
$this->db->join('subjects s', 'm.sid=s.ssid', 'left');
$this->db->join('class c', 'm.sid=c.csid', 'left');
$this->db->where('m.sid', $sid);
$query = $this->db->get();
return $query->result_array();
}

Controller:

function particular($sid){
$sid=$this->uri->segment(3);
$this->load->model('names');

$this->data["names"]=$this->names_rank->get_particular($sid);
$this->load->view("view/details", $this->data);
}

view:

foreach($names as $name) {

echo $name['sid'].' '. $name['first_name'].' '. $name['surname'].' '.$name['class_name'];
}

Answer 1

Try removing the foreach loop just echo the result

echo $names['sid'].' '. $names['first_name'].' '. $names['surname'].' '.$names['class_name'];

If you need to loop, try loop foreach member then echo $names
