Can someone explain the star slash notation used throughout magento controllers for redirecting?
The use by core code seems to be inconsistent and I cant find any decent docs out there that can explain the most correct use of this notation.
In the event that there is any doubt over what i am asking.
It is this style of redirect:
$this->_redirect('/');
$this->_redirect('*/*/');
$this->_redirect('*/*');
From left to right:
When an asterisk is specified, it will use the -current- value of those above.
So assuming you are on
adminhtml/catalog/listpage, a redirect to*/*/somethingwill take you toadminhtml/catalog/something, etc 🙂
