What's the best way to get the name of the current controller? I was looking at uri_segments() but I only want the first segment...

Hi Mat-Moo,
in case you make use of ci routing, the first
url segment may be not the same as the name of your controller.
in that case better write:
Code:
get_class($this)to get the name of the current controller.

I think __CLASS__ would work too.
