Question

I want to know how can I create routes for a controller function which needs an argument to be passed.
Like if I create a function like this:

function abc($arg)
 {
     return $arg;
 }

Then how can I specify a route for the same function? My argument will be containing a mixture of alphabets and numbers

Add this to your APP_PATH/application/config/routes.php

$route['controller_name/abc/([A-Za-z0-9])+'] = "controller_name/abc/$1";
