Codeigniter Routes for filename with extension
- by thehuby
I am using codeigniter and its routes system successfully with some lovely regexp, however I have come unstuck on what should be an easy peasy thing in the system.
I want to include a bunch of search engine related files (for Google webmaster etc.) plus the robots.txt file, all in a controller.
So, I have create the controller and updated the routes file and don't seem to be able to get it working with these files.
Here's a snip from my routes file:
$route['robots\.txt|LiveSearchSiteAuth\.xml'] = 'search_controller/files';
Within the function I use the URI helper to figure out which content to show.
Now I can't get this to match, which points to my regexp being wrong. I'm sure this is a really obvious one but its late and my caffeine tank is empty :)
