Sounds a lot easier!

class Umpirsky_View_Helper_Qurl extends Zend_View_Helper_Abstract {
/**
* Generates an url given the name of a route, honors query string.
*
* @param array $urlOptions Options passed to the assemble method of the Route object.
* @param mixed $name The name of a Route to use. If null it will use the current Route
* @param bool $reset Whether or not to reset the route defaults with those provided
* @return string Url for the link href attribute.
*/
public function qurl(array $urlOptions = array(), $name = null, $reset = false, $encode = true) {
$url = $this->view->url($urlOptions, $name, $reset, $encode);
$requestUri = Zend_Controller_Front::getInstance()->getRequest()->getRequestUri();
$query = parse_url($requestUri, PHP_URL_QUERY);
if($query != ”) {
$url .= ‘/’;
$pairs = explode(‘&’, $query);
foreach ($pairs as $pair) {
$url.= str_replace(‘=’, ‘/’, $pair) . ‘/’;
}
}

return $url;
}
}

You use it same way as Zend_View_Helper_Url, just one letter diference :

qurl(array(‘param2′ => ‘value2′)); ?>

@Jasper: I’ll shut up for a while, until something new comes up :P

Cheers!

Swapping frameworks just because treatment of URLs is easier isn’t really decent enough justification, either, unless that’s the sole function of your project.

Glad you managed to get it sorted, Robert – maybe now you can shut up about it on twitter :p
