Some time ago, we decided to use CodeIgniter to build our site, and thanks to the CodeIgniter forum and documentation, we are finally able to demo the new site.

CodeIgniter certainly helped us to reduce the development time, and new programmers have had easy time getting started on the framework.

Please come and check it out, and we’ll be happy to assist other forum members who want to build similar features for their sites in CodeIgniter.

This site is actually really cool! Great work! I love the premise of your site too. Care to say anything specific in the technologies you used to create it all?

It was pretty much standard CodeIginter / JQeury / MySQL. And we just recently started using Amazon S3 to test it out. What kind of specifics are you looking for? I can definite answer your questions. I’m really glad you liked the site!

Just libraries you might be using. Or did you code all the JS from scratch?
Also, on a side note, it looks like you are using .live() a lot. Just a heads up..

As of jQuery 1.7, the .live() method is deprecated. Use .on() to attach event handlers. Users of older versions of jQuery should use .delegate() in preference to .live().

TRUE ! Have had that issue some days ago.

Btw: Cool site

Thanks for the heads up! We’ll fix those right away. This is my first time using Jquery, so I’m not quite an expert yet.

Our image/video viewer is Floatbox we paid for.

We also use
FitVids.js
jquery.fittext.js
modernizr-2.5.3.min.js

and of course,

jquery-1.7.2.min.js
jquery-ui-1.8.21.custom.min.js
jquery.lazyload.min.js
jquery.form.js

the rest is page specific js files to make AJAX work for each page.

Please let me know if I’m not answering all your questions.

Thanks for the feedback again.

sweet! never heard of lazyload before. Might have to use that in a future project!

Nice! My fellow programmer discovered Lazyload for us. It saves some bandwidth and improves the perceived load time. Have fun.
