Is it possible to call a function which is located in a controller from a view?

This is what i have in my controller, as an example

function checkKey

Like Widox said, I think a Helper is the best way out. Something like this:

db->query("SELECT $keyFROM $table WHERE id = $userid LIMIT 1");
    if($query->num_rows() > 0)
    {
        return true;
    }else
    {
        return false; 
    }
}

?>

Then you can freely use on your views, just loading in your respective controllers like: $this->load->helper('test');.
