Adding a base64_encode data to URL

[eluser]Josepzin[/eluser]
I want to create a URI with a encoded data, like this:

Code:

htt://domain.com/loquesea/VGhpcyBpcyBhbiBlbmNvZGVkIHN0cmluZw==

But it is impossible, because when i get the segment, this is in lowercase and i can not decode it...

I have read same discussion posts about the lowercase URIs and CI, my question is: is possible get a segment without lowercase? I do not want to modify the core... :S

I think, the segment function may be a parameter to disconnect this lowercase conversion.

May be just doing a step more with str_replace?

May be replacing uppercases with 2 characters...

Same like A -> _a, B -> _b ... :S

Maybe this helps.

I use this code to encode a URL if users are not logged in:

Code:

$uri_segments = substr(current_url(), strlen(base_url()));
redirect('login/' . strtr(base64_encode(addslashes(gzcompress(serialize($uri_segments), 9))), '+/=', '-_.'));

And this code to decode:

Code:

$redirect = unserialize(gzuncompress(stripslashes(base64_decode(strtr($redirect, '-_.', '+/=')))));
