Make anchor() generate URLs with trailing slash - El Forum - 04-21-2009

I have this problem:
any time I ask anchor() to generate a url with a trailing slash like
Code:
anchor('malls/', 'Malls');it generates a url without slash. Is there any way to customize this behavior?
Of course, I can put this url manually, but I would prefer anchor() to do it for me

Try setting this in your application/config/config.php file:
Code:
$config['url_suffix'] = "/";Make anchor() generate URLs with trailing slash - El Forum - 04-21-2009

Why is this important? If you are worried about Apache redirecting to a URI with a forward slash, don't. It doesn't happen. As far as Apache is concerned, index.php is handling the request.

@Jelmer
Thanks for the trick!

Actually, I for one prefer URLs without trailing slash. But the person I'm making a site for wants his URLs to end either with .html or slash. So, somehow I have to handle this.

Time to slap the person who wants that - it's a ridiculous request, means absolutely nothing.

Yes, I agree, but still feel reluctant to slap him

[/quote]Well, it is of course a proverbial slap
I'd hate to know what this client is like if they're worried about URL slashes...

Doesn't look like a newbie, but still...
