url_title - El Forum - 03-21-2009

Hey Guys,

Can someone explain briefly the usage of url_title. how do i go about changing a url?

I know u pass in a string to the url_title function and it does all sorts of nice magical things.

But how do I set the physical URL?

Cheers
Gafro

What do you mean exactly?

The url_title() converts a string to an url-friendly format:

"My nice article" becomes "my-nice-article".

The "physical" url is set by an anchor, sometimes like this:

Code:
<a href="&lt;?=site_url('controller/method');?&gt;">A link</a>

You can do a redirect in a controller too:

Code:
&lt;?php
    redirect('controller/method', 'location');
?&gt;
