why can't I send a uri segment to my index function ?? - El Forum - 10-03-2009

I wish this was possible but I get Page Not Found whenever I try to request a URL such as site.com/page/somepage
Code:
class Page extends Controller {
function Page()
{
parent::Controller();
}
function index( $pagerequest )
{
// do stuff
}
}Where do I dig to figure out why this won't work?
Thanks

dude,
from your link example and sample controller, you must have a function called somepage for it to be available in your url. the function should call a view if you so desire or you can use a template depending on prefrence

I understand and use the standard convention, but I'm trying to make this work:
If there are no other methods in the Page class then I want the last segment (e.g. 'somepage') to be used as the $pagerequest parameter of the index function. My goal is to manually route an incoming $pagerequest whose name is arbitrary and thus not necessarily known by my Page controller a priori.
Basically I'll call the view within where I say // do stuff

Use a _remap() method in your controller. Check the Controller page in the User Guide for details

Thanks Colin - that's what I was looking for.
