hiding CI paths for CSS Images etc.... - El Forum - 08-03-2007

hello
I'have looked into CI www source kode and find this (for CSS src):
Code:
.... src="http://codeigniter.com/?css=global/sIFR-print.css" ...how is this done???
hiding paths seems more elegant and secure
I would like to hide all css, js and images paths.
Please help

We built the CodeIgniter site with ExpressionEngine, and this is a standard, "out of the box" feature. It would work differently in CI.

Just create a new controller called media.php with a method for css, javascript, images, etc.
Then you just need to use file() to read it and echo the output directly to the browser. Might look something like this:
Code:
<?php
class Media extends Controller {
function css($file)
{
$this->load->helper('file');
$this->output->set_header("content-type: text/css");
$this->output->set_output(read_file('./media/css/'.$file));
}
function javascript($file)
{
$this->load->helper('file');
$this->output->set_header("content-type: application/x-javascript");
echo read_file('./media/js/'.$file);
}
}
?>Then just call
Quote:media/css/something.css
Images might be a bit trickier, and this wouldnt allow subdomains, but you get the idea. Then again... this might not actually achieve anything as it appears to be a fully working path and hotlinking may still work >.<!

Don't you think that using a controller (which seems the easiest solution for me too) will waste a lot of memory and cpu? Because it will reload ALL the framework for each css, with all the autoloads etc...
I was thinking of having another php file at the same level of index.php that doesn't rely on the framework.
Not sure tho...
