Question

I want both these urls:

/admin/users/add

and

/admin/users/3/edit

to point to edit($user_id = 0) function in my users controller. The number 3 in the second url has to be passed to the $user_id parameter.

How can I do this in a smooth way?

Sulotion:

function _remap($method)
{
$param_offset = 2;

// No method, point to...
if (!method_exists($this, $method))
{
    if (is_numeric($method) || $method == 'add')
    {
        // Show single
        $param_offset = 1;
        $method = 'show';
    }
    else
    {
        // Index
        $param_offset = 1;
        $method = 'index';
    }
}

// Since all we get is $method, load up everything else in the URI
$params = array_slice($this->uri->rsegment_array(), $param_offset);

// Call the determined method with all params
call_user_func_array(array($this, $method), $params);
}
