Protecting certain functions in controller form being used by user directly - El Forum - 04-01-2012

The are certain functions in my controllers that I do not want people to have access to.
I may want only one main function to be accessed in that controller through the browser.
The other functions should be accessed by that main function in that controller only
How can I achieve that
Example: controller/function1 should be able to be accessed by the browser other functions should be accessed by function1(i.e. function2,function3 should be accessed by function1)

You could use the controllers _remap() function:

or choose to use URI Routing:

You could also use what is mentioned in the user's guide about private functions.

PHP private is private in terms of object visibility. CI private is only in terms of URI. Any method defined public but starting with an underscore won't be accessible by any user
Code:
public function _not_publicly_accessible()If you defined any method with visibility private/protected, it won't however be accessible by the CI super-object, too. But that's because it can't call
Code:
$controller->protected_method()Protecting certain functions in controller form being used by user directly - El Forum - 04-02-2012
