[eluser]Unknown[/eluser]
I wanted to create a hook to ensure the login/rights management part of the site, so i can call it before any page that needs it and display the login information without a redirect to keep the user on the same page.
1. I`m using CI since yesterday and i would like to know your opinion about it. I know i don`t have any guarantees about future-compatibility but for now it is self-contained and i can use it on any page without modifying the actual page, which is great.
* the part between /** test **/ and /** /test **/ is for testing the login with the addresses: site/welcome/index/login and site/welcome/index/logout
* i have done just the basic stuff as a proof-of-concept
2. If i want to create an object CurrentUser and access it globally, from whatever module/view it might need it, where should i put it? I am thinking about using a singleton, but if there is a simpler or cleaner way i would like to us it...
Thank you for your time...
