codeigniter / groceryCRUD send data to view not working

I have a script that works, this one:

    $output = $crud->render();

    $data = array();
    $data['title'] = 'Invoice details';
    $output->data = $data;

    $this->output($output); /* crud render and extra fields */

the thing is that this script is opening a function in the controler:

    public function output($output = null) {
    $this->load->view('template.php', $output);
}

and the template file as this: (and more)

<title><?php echo ucfirst($data['title']); ?></title>

works like a charm.

the template file is loading the header and footer and a bunch of css

when I want to open the invoice, I don't want to open the template, just invoice.php

so I created this:

    public function invoice_print() {
    $data = array();
    $data['company'] = 'test';

    $this->load->view('invoice.php', $data);
}

when I open the page I get a error:

A PHP Error was encountered Severity: Notice Message: Undefined variable: data Filename: views/invoice.php Line Number: 16

invoice.php line 16 = this:

<p class="bold"> <?php echo $data['company']; ?> </p>

how do I fix this?

When you pass the variable to the view, you call the variable by the index:

$data['company'] = 'test';
$this->load->view('invoice.php', $data);

view:

<p class="bold"> <?php echo $company; ?> </p>
