Form in CI: POST and GET

[eluser]Phil Sturgeon[/eluser]
Accept URI segments AND post variables. When you post to the form use POST and as you are accepting links such as /search/queryterm then people can still make Firefox search plugins etc.

Code:

$query = $this->input->post('q') ? $this->input->post('q') : $this->uri->segment(3, '');

[quote author="cold_fusion" date="1246936349"]Im rebuilding my site using CI and sooner or later i will have to rebuild basic search form current live site (link in my signature) shows you how that looks. only 2 fields:
category and city. if i use GET, i will end up having "?company=Something&city=Somecity"
and im not using querystrings in my CI development

i want my form after submitting to get me somewhere like this:
"mysite.com/index.php/show/company/city" how do i accomplish that?
is using POST solution? if i wasnt clear enough, just ask and i'll try to be more specific!
thanks in advance[/quote]

How to you manage banners on your site - have you integrated some banner management system with your site - like OpenX or others

on it.
