Question

A 3rd party service that I’m using returns the users to a url like this:

site.com/something.php?id=XXX&something=abc....

Therefore, I need to be able to accept $_GET parameters for only one part of the site.

Is there a way to put a file outside of codeigniter’s application directory which will do something like this:

<?
$id = $_GET['id'];
$something = $_GET['something'];

//Do something so codeigniter thinks this is a request to site.com/process/$id/$something

require('index.php'); //codeigniter's index.php file
?>

I remember using putenv() to achieve this in the past, but don’t remember the details.

Answer 1

Not sure about putenv, but if worse comes to worse you can get the contents of the get array by exploding $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING']

get doesn’t need to be enabled and you still have access.
