+<h2>Passing URI Segments to your Functions</h2>

+<p>If your URI contains more then two segments they will be passed to your function as parameters.</p>

+

+<p>For example, lets say you have a URI like this:

+

+<code>www.your-site.com/index.php/<var>products</var>/<samp>shoes</samp>/<kbd>sandals</kbd>/<dfn>123</dfn></code>

+

+<p>Your function will be passed URI segments 3 and 4 ("sandals" and "123"):</p>

+

+<code>

+&lt;?php<br />

+class Products extends Controller {<br />

+<br />

+&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;function shoes($sandals, $id)<br />
