[quote author="Aken" date="1363758452"]If you use routes, your URI parameters can be dynamic, but all POST data can end up to the same controller method. Still seems unnecessary.[/quote]
The thing is that the issue is not routing it is the "action" attribute in the <form> open tag. That is where the form gets submitted to and that is where the validation code needs to be. But I whole heartedly agree with you both that redirecting is not a great solution but I wrote this extension because it seemed like the only solution.
But you both got me scratching my head wondering how it is that this is not necessary and I just realized that I have been overlooking the simplest solution there is - just include the parameter in the from open tag:
Code:
echo form_open('controller/method/' . $parameter);
So I just updated my code and the module is working now without the redirection so as of now I am not using this method although there still might be some situation where it might be needed, maybe.
So I put up a poll to get some feedback and if there is not enough interest I will not bother the Reactor team with it.
