Re: Returning new value from private function

Calling a private function from app_controller into another controller ought to work. The only thing I can see from your pasted code is that all you are doing is calling the function (which is returning a value) but not collecting it. Try die(debug($this->__utfConvertChar($tempurl))); to see if it is indeed running.

Hi all..

I am not sure if I am doing this correct, but I am trying to return a
private function from my app_controller.php to posts_controller.php

App_controller.php

function __utfConvertChar($tempurl) {
$j = mb_strlen($tempurl);
for ($k = 0; $k < mb_strlen($tempurl); $k++) {
$char = mb_substr($tempurl, $k, 1);
if($this->__utfCharToNumber($char) == '195184' || $this-

__utfCharToNumber($char) == '195152')

{
$newurl = str_replace($char,'o',$tempurl);
}
if($this->__utfCharToNumber($char) == '195165' || $this-

__utfCharToNumber($char) == '195133' || $this-

__utfCharToNumber($char) == '195164' || $this-

__utfCharToNumber($char) == '195132')

{
$newurl = str_replace($char,'aa',$tempurl);
}
if($this->__utfCharToNumber($char) == '195188' || $this-

__utfCharToNumber($char) == '195156')

{
$newurl = str_replace($char,'u',$tempurl);
}
}
return $newurl;
}
function __utfCharToNumber($char) {
$i = 0;
$number = '';
while (isset($char{$i})) {
$number.= ord($char{$i});
++$i;
}
return $number;
}

Post_controller.php
$this->__utfConvertChar($tempurl);


Am I doing something wrong here? I can not see what.. Please assist
me, and/or let me know that this is not the best practice to do this.

Thanks all for any help!!!!
Regards!
