That did the job!! Thanks : $route['(:any)'] = "main";
My Approach is very simple. There is three types of data. 1) Home page, 2)
category pages, and 3) content pages.
So all I need to do is read the URL and determine which it is and pull that
content and populate the template.
I will probably add one more layer of functionality. That would be to check if
there is a template specifically for that particular content.
Pretty simple approach.
Thank you for your help!!

Hey Keith,
You can address this multiple ways. One way is mod_rewrite. Obviously this is
outside of CodeIgniter. Another way is to define custom Routes
(http://codeigniter.com/user_guide/general/routing.html).
I personally recommend against one monolithic controller. I've found that if
your controller is more than about a page of code, its failing DRY principles,
difficult to refactor, difficult to test, etc. This is not always the case, but
a decent generalization. Then again, if you can leverage models, libraries, and
views, and still only have about a page of controller code, then go for it.

Hi,
I'm looking at CodeIgniter. I would like to change the way it works a little
bit.
URL's will take on this pattern:
MyDomain.tld = is the index
MyDomain.tld/page-name (stand alone page)
MyDomain.tld/cat1/catn (one or more categories) (display the last category)
MyDomain.tld/cat1/catn/article-page (one or more categories then an article
page) (display article)
I would like to read the URL in a main controller. There would only be one
controller. I would break the URL into its arguments and decide what Model and
View to load and display.
Is it possible to configure CodeIgniter to function this way?
Thanks in advance!
