Hi, I have an application which I am currently writing that I am dividing up into re useable plugins. Each plugin needs to know as little as possible about its surroundings.
So, for example - I have a forum plugin and a 'forum' can belong to something - whether that is a 'User', a 'Site' or anything else - the forum knows nothing of these. BUT, if I have a URL like this - /sites/1/users/3/forums/2 I do not want to just look at the forum id number 2 - I want to fetch site 1, then find user 3 in its related users, then find forum 2 in its related forums. So, if the url is incorrect, you will quite rightly get a 404 error or something.
The router passes site_id and user_id into the params array of the controller, however I do not know in which order. Is there a way that my controller can find the order of the params in the original url ? Remember, the forum knows nothing of sites or users or anything else that either I or another developer wants to throw at it.
Hope this makes some sense - I am tired as I am typing this 
Cheers
Gary
