[solved] How to write the current URL into a session (Comfort-Login)

[eluser]tschunde[/eluser]
Hi all :-)

In order to bring a little comfort into the login part of my application I want to do the following:


Step 1. A guest visits a protected page (he needs to be logged insave the current URL the user visits into the session).
Step 2. The user is redirected to a login page while the url he wanted to view is saved into a session.
Step 3. After logging in the user is redirected to the protected page he wanted to visit last time.


On protected Controller Functions I make this call:
$this->acl->check(); //My Own ACL Class that checks if the user is logged in. If not he is redirected to login.
So I want to modify check() to save the current url into the session in order to redirect back after logging in.

How realize this this?

Kind Regards

FIrst, use this function combined with your $config('base_url') value to get the URL (unless there's a better way, which there probably is):

Code:

$this->uri->uri_string()

Then, use this to set the value into the session:

Code:

$this->session->set_userdata('some_name', 'some_value');
