I am trying to get case insensitive routing working
I found an article by pseudocoder on using (?i), however that causes some
parsing problems..sometimes the Users controller puts (?i) in the URL and
I get 'missing controller'.
This is what routes.php contains:
Router::connect('/(?i)users', array('controller' => 'users'));
Router::connect('/(?i)register', array('controller' => 'users', 'action'
=> 'add'));
However, if I do a delete, or an edit, it does its job and redirects to a
bad url. Example below:
http://mywebsitename.com/users/edit/1
After the edit is done and I press submit, and it redirects to:
http://mywebsitename.com/(?i)users
Error message:
Missing Controller
Error: (Controller could not be found.
Error: Create the class (Controller below in file:
app\controllers\(controller.php
It will work for any special mappings (for example: url.com/REGISTER,
which is routed to users/register would work. However,
mywebsitename.com/USERS/register would not)
so 2 problems here
1) Controller names are not case sensitive
2) Even for the 'special' actions that are (like the register example
above), it causes routing problems sometimes.
I was looking for a working way to get cases insensitive routing working.
Seems like this is something that should be built in, because many people
would want it.
Update: Seems this problem is a remnant from the php4 days. Adding this
ticket in as per gwoo's recommendation.
Update: I am trying to get a simpletest test case written but it would
take me a bit to get familiarized with the setup so I'll come back here
later when that is done.
