optional parameters in CodeIgniter
public function my_optional_test($not_optional_param, $optional_param = NULL) { $this->stuff(); }have you tried this?
For example, let’s say you have a URI like this:
- example.com/index.php/mycontroller/myfunction/hello/world
- example.com/index.php/mycontroller/myfunction/hello
Your method will be passed URI segments 3 and 4 (“hello” and “world”):
class MyController extends CI_Controller {
public function myFunction($notOptional, $optional = NULL){ echo $notOptional; // will return 'hello'. echo $optional; // will return 'world' using the 1st URI and 'NULL' using the 2nd.}}
