Google have said that they treat underscores in urls exactly the same as a dash in a url. They said this some time ago (i think it's on Matt Cutts blog).
So there you go, problem solved.

Meh.. Unfortunate you make that point, audiopleb. I don't know why CI doesn't just attempt to map dashed controller/function URI parameters to underscored class and class member function names. Well, actually, I do have a hunch why this isn't done, but it still seems slightly ridiculous.
Three simple solutions remain. 1.) Abandon the dashes and adopt underscores, like audiopleb suggests. 2.) Override the necessary Router class member function(s) to make CI think of dashes as underscores. 3.) Lose the two-word URI param altogether. Just name the class "Outsourcing." This last option is my favorite

So far, so good with overriding the Router library's _set_request() method to change dashes found in the first two segments to underscores.
Attached is the MY_Router.php file (inside the .zip) that I'm using in my application/libraries/ directory and here is the addition to the method mentioned above:
Code:
for ( $i = 0; $i < 2; $i++ )
{
if ( isset($segments[ $i ]) && strpos($segments[ $i ], '-') !== FALSE )
{
$segments[ $i ] = str_replace('-', '_', $segments[ $i ]);
}

}Kudos and thanks for the MY_Router.php works perfectly!

Extend the Router class with the following MY_Router :
Code:
<?php
class MY_Router extends CI_Router
{
function _set_request($segments = array()) {
parent::_set_request(str_replace('-', '_', $segments));
}

}Is this solution still working with the latest release of CI (2.0.2)?

Got questions from a couple people recently. Keep in mind that solution is almost 2 years old now!
The idea was how can I get around managing routes.php config when I'm switching around lots of controllers, etc. So overriding the router may be overkill for most situations and stick to just managing routes.php like mentioned here:

In Router.php's _validate_request method, I change '-' to '_' when $segments[0] is checked. In another thread there is a good tip to do this for the set_class and set_method methods and so I got rid of changing the _set_request method with that tip.
