Extend core libraries to detect the request file type and load applicable view

Why not use /blogs, /blogs/xml, /blogs/pdf if the only task is to serve a different file type. In your controller you do

Code:

// fetch data
$type = $this->uri->segment(2);
switch($type)
{
   case 'xml': break;
   case 'pdf': break;
   case FALSE: break;
}
