Please help with $_GET['page']...

[eluser]BoyBlue[/eluser]
I have this code working on a project outside of CI
(I had to replace href with *stuff* to get this to post)

Code in my *View* Page:

<ul class="navbar">
<li class="button"><a stuff="index.php">Home</a></li>
<li class="button"><a stuff="index.php?page=BlogPosts">Blog Posts</a></li>
<li class="button"><a stuff="index.php?page=Photos">Photos</a></li>
<li class="button"><a stuff="index.php?page=Issues">Issues</a></li>
</ul>



*Controller* page Code:

if($_GET['page'] == "BlogPosts"){
include("views/blogposts.php");


}else if($_GET['page'] == "Photos"){
include("views/photos.php");

}else if($_GET['page'] == "Issues"){
include("views/issues.php");

}else{

include("views/home.php");
}


****Now here is My failed attempt at CI:****

View Code:

<ul class="navbar">
<li class="button"><a stuff="index.php">Home</a></li>
<li class="button"><a stuff="index.php?page=BlogPosts">Blog Posts</a></li>
<li class="button"><a stuff="index.php?page=Photos">Photos</a></li>
<li class="button"><a stuff="index.php?page=Issues">Issues</a></li>
</ul>

Controller Code:

if ($this->input->get('page') == 'BlogPosts'){
$this->load->view('view_blog_posts');
}
elseif ($this->input->get('page') == 'Photos'){
$this->load->view('view_photos');
}
elseif ($this->input->get('page') == 'Issues'){
$this->load->view('view_issues');
}
else{

$this->load->view('view_home');

}


The error that I'm getting is *404 Page Not found*.

What am I doing wrong? Also, is there a better way to do this inside CI?

thx,
Ryan

First CI is not supporting GET for security reason for this you have to use URI class will help you. in your controller

Code:

$view = 'view_home';
$page = $this->uri->segment(2,'home');
$view = 'view_'.strtolower($page);
$this->load->view($view);

your URI will be like this
index.php/blogpost
index.php/photos
index.php/issues

no need to use more if conditions if you are using small letter then no need to use strtolower while joining string

Please read doc

CI 2.0 has $_get.
