I think the easiest way to do this would be to put those files in a separate folder outside of CodeIgniter's structure. Or if you know how to do it, you can probably add an exception in the .htaccess file to not redirect those URL to index.php but I don't know how.

By default, everything is fed to index.php (the front controller). I think the only way to bypass this behavior is by editing the .htacess file in the public folder. But I’m no expert in apache config... |
