Hi All,
i need to access the CodeIgniter Controller from a file which is outside CodeIgniter.

can you please guide me on that.

FYI, my method in said controller is also loading models and views and working fine inside CodeIgniter, i just need to do the same thing from outside CodeIgniter.


Thanks in Advance.

Regards,
Abhinav

Um, would using cURL on the URL work for you?

cURL at a basic level is a handy way to grab HTML content from a URL but can do plenty more. You could probably even just use fopen() if your server will allow it.
