I am creatting a Code Igniter project in which I want to pass a variable through the URL like a get statement, like this:
url: /site/cake/1
controller function: cake($var)
but when the variable is left blank, I receive an error, how can I get code igniter, to ignore this?
In your controller, do this:
function cake($var = null) {
// your other code here
}
When $var isn't present in the URL, it will be set to null and you'll receive no error.
To explain why Colin's answer works:
The issue you had, was that there was no default value for that controller function. In php, creating a default value for a function parameter is done by assigning it a value in the function definition ($var = false). Now when the cake() function is called with no parameter, it will set $var to false by default.

is it possible when submitting a form that redirects me with a variable to check if that variable is null? Because when i have if($variable === null) in my code and i dont pass the mentioned variable when loading the page it will result in error that $variable is not defined
you need to define the variable before put it in if condition
not in the if
update:
use this in return : return view('name_page')->with('variable',$variable);
the exception told you that variable doesn't exist on memory so you to check if it exists not in it's value for that you have change your if condition from
if($variable === null) to be if(isset($variable))
Mail::send('emails.cont',['name'=>$n,'email'=>$email],function($message){
$message->to('abc#gmail.com','efe')->from('cde#gmail.com')->subject($s);
});
There for the subject, I am trying to pass a variable called $s which contains a value which defined there. But, it will underlying in red and saying undefined variable called $s. How to solve that?
can you please try the following code
Mail::send('emails.cont',['name'=>$n,'email'=>$email],function($message) use ( $s ) {
$message->to('abc#gmail.com','efe')->from('cde#gmail.com')->subject($s);
});
I have the function
index($errorMsg, $successMsg) {....}
It works when I type in the URL.
http://localhost/website/index.php/home/index/1234/5678
But It does not work But when I type in the URL.
http://localhost/website/index.php/home/index//5678
5678 will be $errorMsg.
Is there any hints
Really bad solution for passing success or error parameters via function arguments by get method in CI.
Try use session flash data to pass success or error messages in redirection view.
$this->session->set_flashdata('errorMsg', '1234');
$this->session->set_flashdata('successMsg', '5678');
And show variables:
function index()
{
echo $this->session->flashdata('errorMsg');
echo $this->session->flashdata('successMsg');
}
Use this solution to avoid errors.
Your solution
Declare function like this
index($errorMsg, $successMsg=NULL) {....}
Explanation
index($errorMsg, $successMsg) function required both arguments(variables). If you don't pass it will produce error which is happening in your case.
index($errorMsg, $successMsg=NULL) function required first one and 2nd one is optional.If you don't pass 2nd argument $successMsg value will be null.
Note
/home/index//5678 no need use double slash after index.One will solve your purpose.You need to just check $successMsg.If it is null means you passed only $errorMsg
I have stored a variable in register by Mage::register('captcha', $var); in helper. And in the controller i tried to retrieve the variable by using Mage::registry('captcha'); But i dont getting any values here. Please help me to solve this.
In your helper file create a function like below :
public function getCaptcha(){
$var = 'myValue123';
Mage::register('varun', $var);
return Mage::registry('varun');
}
In your controller function:
$registryValue = Mage::helper('yourModule')->getCaptcha();
echo registryValue ; //prints myValue123
Hope it helps !!!
It's look like syntax is right.
Please first try to set some static value like $var="test"
Mage::register('captcha', $var);
after that got this value in controller.
Mage::registry('captcha');
if you got this value test then i think you have problem with $var in your helper.
Let me know if you have any problem
'captcha' is already in use, so magento never set your data in registry. Change the name, for example 'captcha1'
Mage::register('captcha1', $var);
Let's say my controller function is expecting 2 parameters: page_name, and user_name
The URL would be in the format http://mysite.com/controller_name/function_name/page_name/user_name
Assuming that sometimes I can have a blank user_name, and other times I can have blank page_name, can I pass a blank page_name by loading this URL?
http://mysite.com/controller_name/function_name//user_name
If the controller function is:
function function_name($page_name="default", $user_name=null)
...
Would the $page_name value be "default" for the 2nd URL stated above?
You can't. Server will simply ignore the extra slash.
Since both parameters are optional, you should use request parameters.
http://mysite.com/controller_name/function_name?page_name=p1&user_name=u1
And in your controller, use $this->input->get('page_name') and $this->input->get('user_name') to get the value and check if the values are empty.
I know this is an old question but the solution I came up with is simple. It goes something like this:
$this->input->get('limit') ? $this->input->get('limit') : 20;
