PORedirect in PHP Codeigniter
text
Body
copied!<p>I have some problems using Code Igniter and I feel there is something I don't understand because I can't get my redirects and my headers to work. Here is the situation :</p> <p>When site is entered, the default "home" controller is called.</p> <pre><code> public function initialize() { printf("CONSTRUCTION OF HOME CONTROLLER - \n"); // print_r($_SESSION); //TODO : CONSIDER CREATING A LIBRARY TO AVOID WRITING THIS OFTEN. NOT // SESSION TROLLING DETECTION if( isset($_SESSION['banana'])) { echo "SPLITTING THE TRUTH"; } // GETTING AS SERIOUS AS GREG if( !isset($_SESSION['username'])) { printf("USERNAME IS NOT SET. SETTING UP THE LOGIN PAGE. \n"); redirect('home_invite'); } else { $this->load->view('welcome_message'); } } public function index() { //INITIALIZING THE PATH USED FOR THIS NAVIGATION printf("TROLLING THE BEGINNING OF THIS CONTROLLER HOME - "); $this->initialize(); printf("TROLLING THE END OF THIS CONTROLLER HOME - "); //TODO : CONSIDER CREATING A LIBRARY TO AVOID WRITING THIS OFTEN } </code></pre> <p>Index calls initialize who verify if the user has already a session variable with username in it. If that's the case, we would proceed to check his level of privileges, etc, and load corresponding view. Thats not the problem.</p> <p>If the session is not started, I want to load the "login" view, called here "home_invite". And I want to redirect him to that page. But if I use this code, the page will show a 404 error.</p> <p>If I use <code>$this->load->view('home_invite')</code>, it works, but I don't understand and I feel it isn't what I want it to do. </p> <p>Why is redirect not working in this context?</p>
