hi,

I have used CI few month ago but still feel like a beginer.

I have 2 questions I know it it not goot to mix many subject but it is related to begining

- If you start a new project from scratch what is the best : starting with CI 1.7 or version 2.0 I don’t want to migrate in few weeks / month when my project will be finish !!

- Second question relating with css and I can add javascript

where do you sugest to place addional css files or css in my previous projetct, I had 2 files in my directory : system ( where I have all CI files ) and includes where I had css, js and images and other scripts.  How do you do ? and what is the best I want to start with good practice now.

Thanks

Did you even read the original posts? It’s covered the very first heading in there!

- Second question relating with css and I can add javascript

Do a forum search on “asset management”, there’s many solutions that might help you.
In general I’d suggest adding dirs like “css” and “images” in the same directory as the index.php, and then you can use CI’s HTML helper for instance like this:

yes I read the begining of this post that is why I ask this question. I red “CodeIgniter 2.0 is unfinished at this point” so I imagine I have to wait… Sorry english is not my native language and as far as I understood it is too early.

And concerning the second point thanks it confirm that I will keep what I did. Just add a directory in the same level as index.php ( only one because in want a simple installation and I don’t want 100 folders to copy; I will have only 2 + index.php

From what you write I’m guessing you do get most English, and it helps to keep reading after the first sentense. Here’s the third sentense in that paragraph:

As such the 2.0 code is considered by many to be as stable or more stable then the 1.7.2 version.

Also check out what Moderator Jamie Rumbelow wrote about this.

Thanks in that case, I have the green light and I will try CI2.0

thanks for all of these, very useful to us.

Great Job.. Thanks

This is very helpful.Thanks for sharing it here.

Hey Jelmer,

Thanks for sharing your insights on CodeIgnitor.

I wished I’ve come across it earlier; it would have made things WAY easier for me.

Anyways, it’s never too late.

Thanks again!

Sean

Thanks for your sharing. That is very helpful to me, really.

Hat’s off. Well done, as we know that “hard work always pays off”, after a long struggle with sincere effort it’s done.
