Home page routing with $route['(:any)']

[eluser]Phil Sturgeon[/eluser]
There is not much point listing all the controllers that should work normally, just list the special one.

Use $route['404_override'] = 'pages'; so all 404 calls go to the pages controller, then use _remap() to show the specific page.

AoiKage: Those routes were not wrong. You only need to wrap :any with () if you want to return the segment and use it in the value. ie: $1. If you are just comparing the pattern of the URL and not re-using sements then there is no need to wrap the :any.
