[ASK] About URI Routing - El Forum - 07-06-2010

Hi all,
I wanna ask about URI Routing. I just create the simple controller category.php and the code like this :
Code:
<?
class Category extends Controller
{
function Category()
{
parent::Controller();
}
function index()
{
echo "Category";
}
function first($param_one = '')
{
echo $param_one;
}
function second($param_one = '', $param_two = '')
{
echo $param_one." ".$param_two;
}
}
?>Ex :
1. http://localhost/codeigniter/category/health
2. http://localhost/codeigniter/category/health/stop_smoking
I just edited the routes.php to and the code like this :
Code:
<?
$route['category/(:any)'] = "category/first/$1";
$route['category/(:any)/(:any)'] = "category/second/$1/$2";
?>http://localhost/codeigniter/category/health => the result is : health
and when i write :
http://localhost/codeigniter/category/health/stop_smoking => the result is still health and not stop_smoking
My question is how can i pass the 3rd parameter?

(:any) will match ANYTHING! So if you ask for /category/health/smoking, that url will match the first rule and be rewritten to /category/first/health/smoking.
You should reverse the order of your rules. That way, it is first checked if there is a url with two parts after 'category'. If that is not matched, the rule with one part after 'category' is tried.

The problem is that (:any)/(:any) is a match to "health/smoking", but (:any) also is a match to "health/smoking" !
So, the rule that you put first will match. To get $1 and $2 correct, you must make sure that the rule with (:any)/(:any) is the first one in the file.
Code:
<?
$route['category/(:any)/(:any)'] = "category/second/$1/$2";
$route['category/(:any)'] = "category/first/$1";
