URI path determined by data value....

[eluser]colorfingers[/eluser]
I've read the information on URI routing ect... and I'm a bit stumped on how I might accomplish this. I would like to take a value, say a user name from MySql and after running it in the controller to bring up a view. The catch is that I would like the URL to reflect the value without displaying the controller...

example: http://mycodeigniter/username vs http://mycodeigniter/user/username...

Does anyone have an idea on how to coax this behavior from CodeIgnitor?

Thanks,

Bob

Either I have asked the impossible or a very dumb question.

This has been covered many many times. Probably been covered a couple times this past week.

Please search the forums. If you can't find it I'll find it for you.

Did a search earlier... Didn't find anything relevant searching 'URL'... Sorry but I did try. I will look further.
