Redirect to forward slash |
Hi all,
I am trying to understand CodeIgniter. I am having the code, created by a developer, I cannot contact. In one of the Views, the index functions looks like this: PHP Code: public function index() Can anyone tell me what is does and why it should be used? I was under the impression, that this means, that the View redirects to the Main.php controller in the folder, the View is located - but that doesn't make sense. So what am I missing?? Albert
it may seem clearer if you look at in the context of a route in Routes.php :
this is one of my routes: Code: $routes->get('/', 'Home::index'); put simply that will take affect with a url such as https://someDomain.com . Home is the name of the controller and index is the default method within the controller "home". Quote:In one of the Views, the index functions looks like this: surely you mean in one of the controllers, the code looks like ... Code: public function index() so to elaborate, if the function index() in some controller is evoked redirect('/') basically means re-direct to the route '/' what happens next depends on whether a route for '/' is defined. in my case as i said mine is set up as: Code: $routes->get('/', 'Home::index'); my function index in controller home just loads a view called "home" . |
