Problems with the form helper and scaffolding when you change the app base and don't show index.php

[eluser]Doug Lerner[/eluser]
I changed the base, moved the main framework stuff above the webroot, and added a .htaccess file so I could have URLs like

http://mydomain.com/CI/app1/users/addUser

instead of the clunkier

http://mydomain.com/CI/CodeIgniter/index...rs/addUser

But when you do this (1) scaffolding doesn't work any more and (2) the form open function in form helper also sets a URL that doesn't work anymore.

Is there a way around this?

Thanks,
