quick question ... any ideas on how to gradually introduce CI into an existing large site?
Ultimatly, i want the site 100% CI, but I have several todo's lined up. 1 of which is a new directory with sales pages. these will be optimizes for selling landing pages (liek that which you'd run your google adwords under.
so those special pages go into a subdirectory, let's call it /landingpages/
should i put my system folder in that directory and end up with 2 or 3 CI system folders? yuk.
or place system at the www root and do no htaccess tricks until the main site is live. thoughts?
we have lots of stuff going on, i need these pages now, but the site overhual is a month away.

what about this ... it seems to work
system direcory on the root ... and my $config['index_page'] is set to ""
.htaccess file ...
Code:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^welcome/(.*)$ my-temporary-ci-default-page.php/$1 [L]so i this seems to be behaving and working. any ideas on this? i guess what i'm looking for is to prevent any "gotchas" down the road.
