Problem with URI and pass String Variables with GET...

[eluser]Parker Lewis[/eluser]
Ok. This is my first post... I didn't found out a solution for my problem in google..

As u know, the uri in codeigniter handle class, function and variables in this way:

ww.myblog.com/class/function/variable1/variable2

I have to pass a string that contain blank spaces... so that i have to redirect to this page

ww.myblog.it/class/function/variable with blank spaces/variable2

but it takes only the first word ('variable').

In normal PHP programming if i had to pass a string variables (with blank spaces) with GET there was no problem..
I mean that I could write

a href="index.php?variable1=string with blank space inside"> click </a>

and it works...
i mean that
$_GET['variable1'] = string with blank space inside
and not only string

How can i manage this thing in codeigniter ? thanks in anvance...

Hope to being clear...

Hello. For security CodeIgniter does not allow the use of special characters and space in the url, but you can enable the query string in the configuration files located in application/config. Also read the user guide (http://ellislab.com/codeigniter/user-gui.../urls.html)

Code:

/*
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Enable Query Strings
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
| By default CodeIgniter uses search-engine friendly segment based URLs:
| example.com/who/what/where/
|
| By default CodeIgniter enables access to the $_GET array.  If for some
| reason you would like to disable it, set 'allow_get_array' to FALSE.
|
| You can optionally enable standard query string based URLs:
| example.com?who=me&what=something&where=here
|
| Options are: TRUE or FALSE (boolean)
|
| The other items let you set the query string 'words' that will
| invoke your controllers and its functions:
| example.com/index.php?c=controller&m=function
|
| Please note that some of the helpers won't work as expected when
| this feature is enabled, since CodeIgniter is designed primarily to
| use segment based URLs.
|
*/
$config['allow_get_array']        = TRUE;
$config['enable_query_strings'] = FALSE;
$config['controller_trigger']    = 'c';
$config['function_trigger']        = 'm';
$config['directory_trigger']    = 'd'; // experimental not currently in use
