I have a user registration form and it's working fine but would like to add an image upload feature inside it. This is basically what I'd like to achieve

So far, this is what I have done

Controller:

class Employees extends CI_Controller {
var $pgToLoad;

public function __construct() {
    parent::__construct();
    #this will start the session
    session_start();
    $this->load->helper(array('form', 'url'));


    if(!isset($_SESSION['userId']) || !isset($_SESSION['userLevel']) || !isset($_SESSION['employeeid']) || !isset($_SESSION['firstname']) || !isset($_SESSION['lastname'])) {
        redirect('home', 'location');
    }

    #this will load the model
    $this->load->model('Contents');

    #get last uri segment to determine which content to load
    $continue = true;
    $i = 0;
    do {
        $i++;
        if ($this->uri->segment($i) != "") $this->pgToLoad = $this->uri->segment($i);
        else $continue = false;             
    } while ($continue);        
}

public function index() {       
    $this->main();
}   

public function main() {
    #set default content to load 
    $this->pgToLoad = empty($this->pgToLoad) ? "employees" : $this->pgToLoad;
    $disMsg = "";

    #this will delete the record selected
    if($this->uri->segment(2) == 'delete') { 
        $this->deleteRecord();
    }

    #this will check if the post value is trigger
    if(isset($_POST['addnew'])) {
        $this->addRecord(); 
    }                   

    #this will check if the post value is trigger
    if(isset($_POST['saveinfo'])) {
        $this->updateinfo();    
    }           

    if($this->uri->segment(2) == 'add' || $this->uri->segment(2) == 'edit') {
        #this display the form for products
        $this->displayForm();
    } else {
        #this will display the job orders
        $this->getAllEmployees();       
    }   


    if($this->uri->segment(2) == 'print') {

        $this->pdf();
    } 

if($this->uri->segment(2) == 'do_upload') {
        #this display the form for products
        $this->do_upload();
    } 

    #this will logout the user and redirect to the page
    if($this->uri->segment(2) == 'logout') {
        session_destroy();
        redirect('home', 'location');
    }

                </div>
            </form>

As you can see in views, there are 2 forms. First form is for image upload and the other one is user registration form. How will I be able to include the image upload in the reg form and perform image upload, save user info and form validation once save button is clicked?

This is how I handle file uploads with form... it's a generic example but it should help.

View

<?php echo form_open_multipart('someController/someFunction') ?>

    <div class="form-group">
        <label for="name">Name</label>
        <input type="text" name="name">
    </div>

    <div class="form-group">
        <label for="uploads">Upload a file</label>
        <input name="uploads[]" id="fileupload" type="file" multiple="true">
    </div>

    <input type="submit">

<?php echo form_close() ?>

Controller

public function addRecordToTable()
{
    $this->form_validation->set_rules('name' , 'Name', 'required');

    if ($this->form_validation->run() == true) {
        $array = array(
            'name'      => $this->input->post('name')
        );

        $record_id = $this->some_model->addData('some_table', $array);
        $this->uploadFiles($record_id);
    }
}

public function uploadFiles($record_id)
{
    $config = array(
        'upload_path'   => FCPATH . "path\to\directory",
        'allowed_types' => 'jpg|png|jpeg',
        'overwrite'     => TRUE,                       
    );

    $this->load->library('upload', $config);

    $files = $_FILES['uploads'];

    foreach ($files['name'] as $key => $filename) {
        $_FILES['uploads[]']['name']     = $files['name'][$key];
        $_FILES['uploads[]']['type']     = $files['type'][$key];
        $_FILES['uploads[]']['tmp_name'] = $files['tmp_name'][$key];
        $_FILES['uploads[]']['error']    = $files['error'][$key];
        $_FILES['uploads[]']['size']     = $files['size'][$key];

        $config['file_name'] = $filename;

        $this->upload->initialize($config);

        if (isset($_FILES['uploads[]']['name']) && !empty($_FILES['uploads[]']['name'])) {
            if ( ! $this->upload->do_upload('uploads[]')) {
                $error = array('error' => $this->upload->display_errors());

            } else {
                $uploads[] = $this->upload->data();
                $array = array(
                    'record_id' => $record_id,
                    'filename'  => $_FILES['uploads[]']['name'],
                    'size'      => $_FILES['uploads[]']['size']
                );
                $this->some_model->addData('uploads', $array);
            }
        }
    }
    redirect(base_url() . 'someController/someFunction/' . $record_id);
}

Model

public function addData($table, $array)
{
    $this->db->insert($table, $array);

    return $this->db->insert_id();
}

Edit:

As per your comment, to insert data into multiple tables, simply modify the code in your controller so:

public function submitEmployeeDetails()
{
    $this->form_validation->set_rules('value1' , 'Value 1', 'required');
    $this->form_validation->set_rules('value2' , 'Value 2', 'required');

    if ($this->form_validation->run() == true) {
        $array1 = array(
            'value1' => $this->input->post('value1')
        );

        $array2 = array(
            'value2' => $this->input->post('value2')
        );           

        $this->your_model->addData('employees', $array1);
        $this->your_model->addData('employees_details', $array2);
    }
}

So you have two arrays and you call the addData() function in the model, the first parameter specifies the name of the table and the second passes the associative array to be added.
