What is the best way to have multiple pages in an application? - El Forum - 02-17-2010

Hi, apologies if this is a noobish question. I am finding CodeIgniter easy to get into due to the great documentation, and am able implement quite a lot of it's functionality now on a single page. My question is I've just added a second page to my application by adding a new controller and a new view file, which works, but I have a feeling there might be a more efficient way of adding more pages? Can I do this from within a single controller?
I am accessing the new page, called stories, with the following URL:
http://www.example.com/index.php/stories
(controller: stories.php / view: stories_view.php)
Hope I've explained this sufficiently, let me know if I haven't

Think I've just found the answer actually, please correct me if I'm wrong/there's a better way. I moved the index function of the controller stories.php into the main contoller welcome.php and called it stories(). I then changed the URL to call it to:
http://www.example.com/index.php/welcome/stories
and it worked as requested, thus eliminating the need for a second controller.
