URL Generation in Zend Framework

[phpdeveloper82]

hello,

 

I have started studying Zend Framework and have a doubt in creating urls.

 

Suppose I am visiting a page:

 

http://localhost/zend/bugs/page/1  (Using Pagination)

 

then the edit will be like this:

 

localhost/edit/1

 

So I wish to store the site url (http://localhost/zend/ ).. Any method is available in Zend for manage this ?

[phpdeveloper82]

It is possible to create helper class to do this..

 

<?php
class Zend_View_Helper_GetSiteUrl
{

    function getSiteUrl()
    {
        $site_url 			= 'http://localhost/zend/';
        return $site_url;
    }
    
    
}

 

But is there any issue of using this Helper Function in the Controller & Views like :

 

<td><a href='<?php echo $this->getSiteUrl(); ?>pages/edit/id/<?php echo $this->id; ?>'>Edit</a>

 

 

Inside the controller:

 

 $bugReportForm->setAction($this->view->getSiteUrl().'pages/edit');

Use the BaseUrl view helper

 

<link href="<?php print $this->baseUrl('styles/screen.css'); ?>" .. />
