I'm viewing table of users from MySQL database using laravel,andhow there is edit column and I need to use the $id parameter to redirect the user to another page and view the user details. this is my route and it's working fine.

<td>
    <a href="{{ URL::to('userdetails',$user->id) }}"</a>
    Edit
</td>

but after going to this page that view user detials. my navigation bar url's start behaving weird.

when I view the users list my URL is 

/osama/warehouse/public/index.php/userslist

when I view a specific users with an id the url is

/osama/warehouse/public/index.php/userdetails/1

until all good, but after that when I click on my home button on my navigation bar or other links I get an error because the URL not correct

/osama/warehouse/public/index.php/userdetails/home !!!

the right URL should be 

/osama/warehouse/public/index.php/home

note I'm not using blade route or html url for my navigation bar,just pure HTML.the reason is I got css classes that I can't include in the html link.

Please provide your code for your "Home" button. And could you please elaborate why you are not using Laravel helper classes? – Philipe
this is one of my navigation bar code and it's hard to write using blade.<a <?php if ($_SESSION['navbar']=="dashboard"){echo 'class="active"';}?> href="home"><i class="fa fa-dashboard fa-fw"></i> Dashboard</a> – Osama Al-Banna

You should really use the helper classes that Laravel provides.
This kind of problem would be avoided.

Examples using Laravel:

<a href="{{ URL::to('home') }}">Dashboard</a>
<a href="{{ url('home') }}">Dashboard</a>

If you insist in not using them, you probably have to modify your links to be relative to your root by adding a slash at the beggining:

<a href="/home">Dashboard</a>

You should change all URL's that needs to be relative to your root.

URL::to() doesn't prefix the URL with / so when you call it, you'll get "userslist" or "userdetails/1" back.

If you simply put a / into your call to URL::to(), it'll work fine:

<a href="{{ URL::to('/userdetails',$user->id) }}"></a>

You'll need to do this with all occurrences of URL::to() (eg. on your Home link).

In other news, there are a couple of other issues:

  • your <a> tag is missing the close > - you just have id) }}"</a>
  • your link is empty, because "Edit" is outside the tag. You probably want id) }}">Edit</a>
