Everyone should get a 2nd chance

This is a personal note kind of post.. So, those who knew already about this… just can skip.. . But for a short summary, to use the power of GET method by not setting the CI as Query string based URL. 

Target To achieve: 

http://localhost/myapp/mycontroller/mymethod/?possible=yes

create file MY_Input.php in your application/library/
[ Reason: SO that CI does not destroy GET Method ] 

<?php

class MY_Input extends CI_Input {

    function _sanitize_globals()

    {

        $this->allow_get_array = TRUE;

        parent::_sanitize_globals();

    }    

} 

$config['permitted_uri_chars'] = ‘a-z 0-9~%?=&.:_\-’;

$config['index_page'] = “”;
