Thank you wiredesignz for code and support.
I have slightly modified the code to each widget has been placed in its directory:
Code:
<?php if ( ! defined('BASEPATH')) exit('No direct script access allowed');

[quote author="wiredesignz" date="1289633500"]Change the file name to widget_helper.php and relocate the file to application/helpers.[/quote]
1. Create a directory with the name of the widget in the /application/widgets .
2. Place there
index.php - widget class file (Class has the same name as the directory)
view.php
Notice that render() method now get only one argument - $data.
It looks like
/application/widgets/
my_widget/
index.php
view.php
