Hi everybody,

Code:
$c_url_redir = 'http://www.example.com/content.php?id=test&article=3';
if (isset($c_url_redir)){
echo anchor(urlencode($c_url_redir), "go", 'class="pure-button pure-button-primary" target="_blank"');

correct way to do this
Code:
$c_url_redir = 'http://www.example.com/content.php?id=test&article=3';
if (isset($c_url_redir)){
echo anchor($c_url_redir, "go", 'class="pure-button pure-button-primary" target="_blank"');
}ci's anchor function is not able to detect external url when you encode it...

CI's helper functions, like anchor(), are helpers for YOUR CI app. If you want to link to something external outside of your app, don't use CI's helpers and create a traditional <a> tag.
