Can I Route YYYY/MM/DD URL Segments to a Controller? - El Forum - 04-14-2011

I'm trying to use routes to have a timeline controller handle URLs like this: example.com/2011/04/15
I tried these routes, but they aren't working (I get a 404):
Code:
$route['(:num)/(:num)/(:num)'] = 'timeline/$1/$2/$3'; // year, month, and day
$route['(:num)/(:num)'] = 'timeline/$1/$2'; // year and month
$route['(:num)'] = 'timeline/$1/'; // year onlyWhat am I missing?

I think that's because the "2011" function doesn't exists under the timeline controller...
It should be:
Code:
$route['(:num)/(:num)/(:num)'] = 'timeline/foo/$1/$2/$3'; // year, month, and day
$route['(:num)/(:num)'] = 'timeline/foo/$1/$2'; // year and month
$route['(:num)'] = 'timeline/foo/$1/'; // year onlyand the controller like:
Code:
class Timeline extends CI_Controller {
function __construct()
{
parent::__construct();
}
function foo()
{
//some code...
}

This worked, thanks!
Routes:
Code:
$route['(:num)/(:num)/(:num)'] = 'timeline/day/$1/$2/$3';
$route['(:num)/(:num)'] = 'timeline/month/$1/$2';
$route['(:num)'] = 'timeline/year/$1/';Controller:
Code:
public function year() {
$data = array(
'message_text' => 'year'
);
$this->layouts->view('shared/display_messages',$data);
} // year
public function month() {
$data = array(
'message_text' => 'month'
);
$this->layouts->view('shared/display_messages',$data);
} // month
public function day() {
$data = array(
'message_text' => 'day'
);
$this->layouts->view('shared/display_messages',$data);
} // day
