Oh an here's the main_teplate:

Code:

<?php
$this->load->view( 'includes/header' );

$uri = explode( '/', uri_string() );

switch( $uri[3] ) {
    case "":
    $this->load->view( $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] . '/index' );
    break;
    default:
    $this->load->view( $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] );
}

$this->load->view( 'includes/footer' );
?>
