I have books, authors, sellers controllers. In controllers I have some private functions like
Code:
_setBookByAuthor($a) {
...
}The function calls a common model function, and some helper functions for text manipulations and sets appropriate output in an array.
Incidentally this function became a bit generic and could be used from all controllers.
Is there a way of defining these kind of functions once so maintenance becomes easier?
Thanks.

Welcome to CI Insteps!
You'd probably want to build a custom library for this.
