can i use codeigniter with nginx?

Ok you guys,

As there are some nginx experts in here... Maybe one of you can be of assistance.

I'm trying to figure out for some time to get a CI project working on a new server running nginx.
I have tried a couple of things but nothing seems to work. Apache was never a problem, but because I am a complete newby on nginx configuration I can't get things to work.

My standard nginx config is the following:

Code:

server {
    listen      my.servers.ip.address:80;
    server_name domain.nl www.domain.nl;
    error_log  /var/log/httpd/domains/domain.nl.error.log error;

    location / {
        proxy_pass      http://128.199.58.148:8080;
        location ~* ^.+\.(jpeg|jpg|png|gif|bmp|ico|svg|tif|tiff|css|js|htm|html|ttf|otf|webp|woff|txt|csv|rtf|doc|docx|xls|xlsx|ppt|pptx|odf|odp|ods|odt|pdf|psd|ai|eot|eps|ps|zip|tar|tgz|gz|rar|bz2|7z|aac|m4a|mp3|mp4|ogg|wav|wma|3gp|avi|flv|m4v|mkv|mov|mp4|mpeg|mpg|wmv|exe|iso|dmg|swf)$ {
            root           /home/my_user/web/domain.nl/public_html;
            access_log     /var/log/httpd/domains/domain.nl.log combined;
            access_log     /var/log/httpd/domains/domain.nl.bytes bytes;
            expires        max;
            try_files      $uri @fallback;
        }
    }

    location /error/ {
        alias   /home/my_user/web/domain.nl/document_errors/;
    }

    location @fallback {
        proxy_pass      http://my.servers.ip.address:8080;
    }

    location ~ /\.ht    {deny all;}
    location ~ /\.svn/  {return 404;}
    location ~ /\.git/  {return 404;}
    location ~ /\.hg/   {return 404;}
    location ~ /\.bzr/  {return 404;}

}

How can I change things so that stuff like rewriting etc. works..?

I found this article about a nginx config with a very rich featured config I really want to use:
http://www.farinspace.com/codeigniter-ng...ite-rules/

Does anyone know how I can change my config and add the cool features from the article above?

Thanks in advance,
