Links and IDs

[eluser]csabessz47[/eluser]
Hy all!

I'm fairly newbie to Codeigniter but I like it already.

I would like to create links (yes I used anchor() already), but I need something like this:

Code:

<a href="..." id="XX">YYY</a>

So I've trouble with the id parameter. How could I create it?

My code now:

Code:

<?php foreach($menu as $key=>$item): ?>
  <li>&lt;?=anchor($link[$key],$item); ?&gt;</li>
&lt;?php endforeach; ?&gt;

I have 2 arrays:

Code:

$data["menu"] = array("Main","About me","References","Services","Contact");
$data["link"] = array("","cv","refer","service","contact");

And I managed to create this:

Code:

<li><a href="http://localhost/cs/index.php/cv">About me</a></li>

But I need for example: id="cv"

How can I create it?

Code:

anchor($url, $title, $attributes);

anchor('cv', 'About Me', 'id="cv"');

would produce (assuming base_url is set to 'http://localhost/cs/index.php/'):

Code:

<a href="http://localhost/cs/index.php/cv" id="cv">About Me</a>

Code:

anchor('cv', 'About Me', 'id="cv" class="someclass"');

would produce:

Code:

<a href="http://localhost/cs/index.php/cv" id="cv" class="someclass">About Me</a>

Thank you for the answer!

I didn't think it was easy like this

No prob. This would convert your arrays the way you want.

Code:

$data["menu"] = array("Main","About me","References","Services","Contact");
$data["link"] = array("","cv","refer","service","contact");

foreach($data["menu"] as $k => $item)
{
    echo anchor($data['link'][$k], $item, 'id="' . $data['link'][$k] . '"') . '<br />';
}

yes i used the same way thanks

and again: i'm a newbie:

in the controller i have 2 functions: index, and cv.

I'd like to link a CSS file, its in localhost/cs/css/style.css
How can I solve this?

in the controller:

Code:

$data["css"] = "../../css/style.css";

in the view file:

Code:

<link href="<?=$css?>" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />

this works at the following url:

http://localhost/cs/index.php/blog/cv

and

http://localhost/cs/index.php/blog/

but if i just type

http://localhost/cs

it doesn't work.

Any ideas or how should I solve this? I haven't find any tutorial or description for this.

Use an asset manager, like caribiner: http://codeigniter.com/wiki/Carabiner/

Then you have a header view that gets called on every page load. From the controller you can dynamically assign css/js whatever to the head of your document in the header view.

I need help again.
I downloaded Carabiner, copied the config and library files, but I can't make it work.
My css folder is next to the 'system' folder.
My controller:

Code:

function Main() {
    parent::Controller();
    $this->load->helper('url');
    $this->load->library('carabiner');
    
    $carabiner_config = array(
        'script_dir' => 'assets/scripts/',
        'style_dir'  => 'css/',
        'cache_dir'  => 'assets/cache/',
        'base_uri'   => base_url(),
        'combine'    => TRUE,
        'dev'        => FALSE
    );
    $this->carabiner->config($carabiner_config);
    $this->carabiner->css('style.css');
}

The problem is that I can't use it. I read the wiki but I don't understand.
Should I use

Code:

$this->carabiner->display('css')

but if yes: where?

[eluser]csabessz47[/eluser]
okey i solved:

in the controller:

Code:

$data["css"] = base_url()."css/style.css";

in the view:

Code:

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="<?=$css?>" media="screen" />

But i didn't want to use full url.
