Ok, I understand. What you are talking about is what I would like to do.
However When I drop cp.php in the controllers directory and drop pages.php in
the controllers/cp directory,
/cp/pages uses the cp.php controller. If this is what you suggested earlier, I
must have it mis configured.
I appreciate your help!!

You can do it that way. I always found that the CRUD wasn't just a simple CRUD.
The form validation was slightly different. The data manipulation between
models and views was slightly different. Therefore, I built individual
controllers, with a database table having its own model extended from MY_Model
extended from CI_Model. This allowed me to put all of the common model
functions in one file, test it, then extend it further for other additional
functionality.
The CI style is less about doing it a specific way. Its not like Rails where
there is ONLY one way to do things. CI is flexible.
Does that help?

Actually I have 50+ tables to deal with. That number will grow. I'm not
following what you are suggesting - "abstracting the models into a MY_Model.php
core file"?
I'm thinking one controller for the control panel, and depending on what the
second segment is (second segment is the table name) then pull in the code for
managing the one table. That way I have one controller and 50 includes that
each contain the CRUD for it's own table.
Any thoughts?
I not finding much in the way of what the CI style of development is.

if you are adding 30+ controllers just for CRUD, think about abstracting the
models into a MY_Model.php core file. Keep it DRY, it makes testing easier too.

If I can avoid modifying the routing.php script that would be great.
I watched both video's that were on the old CI site, read lots of posts on
Google, and have a book that I read cover to cover.
I have not found any real in-dept info on CI routing.
Thanks for your help!!

Yeah. Keep researching CodeIgniter tutorials, because ideally, you wouldn't
ever need to use routes.php unless you had a need for an alias or some other
special occasion.
On another note, it would be more conventional to talk to your database tables
in model files and then call model functions in your controllers. Again, I
recall watching a short CodeIgniter tutorial video that really helped clarify
this.

You can just put your controller "pages" in the controller/cp directory...
Then you don't have to muck with the routes...

Hi,
I'm rather new to CodeIgniter. I'm using version 2.0.3 and am using the
provided .htaccess code to remove index.php from the URL.
I'm working on a control panel and would like to set up a controller for each
table to keep things simple and modular. (any feedback on a better idea is
much appreciated)
I was thinking I needed to configure the controllers this way
1) $route['cp/pages/(:any)'] = "cp_pages"; (would contain only controller code
for managing the pages table.)
2) $route['cp/users/(:any)'] = "cp_users"; (would contain only controller code
for managing the users table.)
.... other table configured with their own control panel.
3) $route['cp/'] = "cp"; (splash page and menu. If not logged in presents the
log in form)
/cp/ gives me the splash page. so far so
good.
/cp/pages - cp controller - not what I was expecting. I was wanting the index
function of the cp_pages controler.
/cp/pages/list/ - takes me to the cp_pages controller / index function
What I would like to configure is:
/cp/ - use cp controller
/cp/pages/ - use the cp_pages controller / index function
/cp/pages/add/ - use the cp_pages controller / add function
/cp/pages/list - use the cp_pages controller /list function
/cp/pages/list/10 - use the cp_pages controller /list function with segment set
to 10 as starting point.
If I'm going down the wrong path please let me know.
Thank you!
