Yaf_Request_Abstract::getParam example

<?php
class ProductController extends Yaf_Controller_Abstract
{
    public function viewAction()
    {
        $request = $this->getRequest();

        // Assuming the request is /product/view/id/17
        $id       = (int) $request->getParam("id");
        $referrer = $request->getParam("referrer", "direct");

        var_dump($id, $referrer);
    }
}
?>

The above example will output something similar to:

int(17)
string(6) "direct"
