I'm really interested in doing/programming my own Facebook application/game using CodeIgniter, the thing is:
1) I do not know where to start, and I do not know how many Facebook Applications were made with CI.
2) CI actively switches off GET variables, but if you're wanting to use AJAX you're pretty much going to need GET variables -- my question therefore is, is using CI to make a Facebook game really a good idea, when other frameworks do allow GET variables, etc.
3) Security features -- Just how much security does one need to put onto a facebook application, whilst CI works with good practice, one still needs to program defensively against Cross Site Scripting, Session forgeries, etc; but an application could get easily bogged down by restrictive security; just how far does one go to do this.
4) Monetization: What are the monetization methods with regards to Facebook applications?
I am aware the people who made the facebook game "Crime Rings" for EA used CodeIgniter, but whilst it was an interesting game, I don't think it was as enjoyable as it could have been.
Anyway, I'm wondering if anyone out there has used CI for facebook applications, what applications already use CI and basically a primer on getting started.
Thanks
