Question

How can I make an controller, which will be accessible on the following url address:

/index.php/my_controller/controller_function/another_function

or

/index.php/account/profile/edit

I know that is possible, but I cant find any site which will explain this, from the manual I’ve read that the controller should be in the folder, but what then?

Answer 1

Make a controller called class Account extends CI_Controller, which has the method profile, taking a parameter of $action – this will automatically be filled with edit when you visit /account/profile/edit.

public function profile ($action = '')
{
    switch ($action)
    {
        case 'edit':
            $this->show_edit_account();
        break;

        default:
            $this->show_default_action();
        break;
    }
}

protected function show_edit_account ()
{
    echo 'Edit account!';
}
