PHP +CodeIgniter , RestFul Url without MVC?

Question

I would use CodeIgniter in my new project, but i only use the helper function, so Can i run my php script as CodeIgniter restful Url function but not in MVC?

or i can done by Apache rewrite mod instead?

Answer 1

Apache rewrites would be more suitable if you don't have a need to use CodeIgniter.

In your .htaccess file you'd use something like:

RewriteEngine on

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d

RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?page=$1 [PT]

Then you can use http://yoursite.com/whatever and $_GET['page'] will equal whatever.
