Handling external application with Codeigniter

[eluser]Solarpitch[/eluser]
Hi,

I'm trying to use an external php charting application (http://www.maani.us/xml_charts/index.php?menu=Tutorial) with the framework. This is a small app I've used many times but not with Codeigniter.

The app requires these files. Once there uploaded to the root directory on the server you can access the chart by going to...

www.mysite.com/sample.html

Code:

* charts.swf
* charts_library -> directory
* AC_RunActiveContent.js
* sample.html
* sample.xml

I'm not sure how this structure would work with Codeigniter. Should the files be contained in the root directory as normal ie. outside of the system folder?

I have it like this at the moment and I created a controller charts.php. This then calls a view that has the js which points to www.mysite.com/AC_RunActiveContent.js

I just need to know if this is the correct way of using an external app as the problem I seem to be having is that it cant find the charts.swf file for some reason... but can if I run it outside of the framework...
