Codeigniter routing errors

Question

I am trying to get a route working, all I get so far is errors. So far I have:

    $route['gig/(:any)/(:any)'] = "gig/details/$1/$2/$3";

$1 is a gigcode variable, $2 is the seller and $3 is the title. I want the url to say gig/seller/title? How would I go about achieving this?

I am getting some weird view rendering errors, similar to when I had some routing problems before, so I am guessing there is a problem with the route. Do you know of a way to do the same route I am asking for using regex? — user1779397

(:any) is simply replaced with (.*) in codeigniter... have you tried putting a die('test') at the top of the controller gig/details ? if its getting to the controller its not a route problem. Also please try to be more specific with your feedback, rather than saying "some wierd view rendering errors" why not actually copy + paste the error you are getting. it will help us to help you. — Raggamuffin

You will require a controller called gig, and a method called details in the following format:

public function details($gig_id, $seller, $title) {

}

Also your route is lacking one token, it should be:

$route['gig/(:any)/(:any)/(:any)'] = "gig/details/$1/$2/$3";

to correspond with your URL requirement.
