I am new to CI and I love it but I have some confusions.

1. What is a model for? Where would I benefit from using model+controller+viewer as opposed to just controller+viewer?

2. How can I remove index.php from my URLs and simply use /this/that/. For some weird reason CI doesn't come packed with a htaccess to do the rewriting and I personally can not for the love of my life navigate htaccess format. It just makes no sense to me.

3. Where do I put my content and how do I access it? Stuff like CSS, JS, Images, other files.

4. Can I delete empty folders from my application folder? Stuff like core or helpers since I don't have any custom written scripts in there.

5. How can I write stuff like this "{elapsed_time}" where it automatically gets replaced with something.

6. Official files do not end with ?>, what's up with that?

Thanks if you can help.

Something weird I noticed is that I couldn't find any tuts for CI that are not videos. My internet speed is really bad and it cuts off often so viewing or downloading videos is not possible.
