.htaccess trouble with CodeIgniter 2.0

yes, i know what you meant, and my answer stands for your question .
When i suggested to put that php line of code, i assume you understand that it was meant for the php files within your app(views/libraries/helpers etc).

So you can continue just like you are doing now(without htaccess in app folder) but don't forget in your php files, at the start, to add the line i suggested.
