Simple Search: Passing Form Variable to URI Using CodeIgniter

Question

I have a search form on each of my pages. If I use form helper, it defaults to $_POST. I\'d like the search term to show up in the URI:

http://examp         


        

Answer 1

Here is the best solution:

$uri = $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];

$pieces = explode("/", $uri);

$uri_3 = $pieces[3];

Thanks erunways!
