The debug code you posted starts like this:
app\controllers\products_controller.php (line 13)
Array
(
[Data] => Array
So, you actually set a variable called $Data (capital 'D'), not $data.
PHP is case sensitive. Make sure that you're naming it "data" in your
controller AND using "data" in your view.
